Payment technology built for Zambian businesses
Lyonga helps businesses collect payments, track every transaction and reconcile with confidence.
Getting paid should be the easy part of running a business.
Too many businesses still piece together payments from different channels, then spend hours working out which customer paid, how much arrived and when it will settle.
Our mission is to give businesses one dependable place to collect payments, follow them through to settlement and keep records their accountants can trust.
What the platform does
Lyonga sits between your business and the payment methods your customers use, and keeps a clear record of everything in between.
- Collect payments
- One integration, or simple payment requests, for the payment methods approved for your account.
- See every transaction
- A reference, a status and an event history for each payment, so nothing has to be chased by phone.
- Reconcile and report
- Payments, fees and settlements laid out so your finance team can match them without guesswork.
A commitment to reliable payment technology
Businesses depend on payments clearing correctly every time. These are the principles we hold ourselves to as we build.
Predictable behaviour
Clear statuses, documented errors and idempotent requests, so the same action always has the same result.
Honest communication
When something goes wrong we say so, directly to affected merchants and on our status page.
Security by default
Encrypted connections, controlled access and audit trails are part of how the platform is built, not optional extras.
Only what is approved
We enable payment methods and features for a merchant only once the relevant approvals are in place.
Who we are
Lyonga is the trading brand of Smart Edge Tech Limited, a technology company based in Zambia.
We operate in partnership with Lipila, a licensed payment service provider. Payment methods and features are made available to merchants once the relevant approvals are in place.
Zambia first
We are starting with businesses in Zambia, where we can work closely with merchants and get the fundamentals right.
Over time we plan to serve businesses in more African markets, subject to the approvals each market requires.
