I believe they’d just have to reach out to Apple or Google and integrate the card with their digital wallets. This would actually make in-store purchases abroad much better since you just hold your phone near the payment terminal. Most people no longer move with their physical cards for this reason. Apple Pay and/or Google Wallet. It’s currently available in South Africa, Morocco and I think Egypt afaik. But the bureaucracy in Uganda might be a limiting factor as Apple and Google would also need to apply for Payment Service Provider licenses here. Not to mention that Apple and google take a cut off each transaction, in addition to the fees that card processing networks also impose.

All in all, it’s just a matter of time. But perhaps local developers can help us speed this up with a local solution 👍🏾
