Seamless Africa 2027

Seamless Africa 2027 returns to the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg on 25–26 October 2027. Run by Terrapinn as part of its Seamless series, the show combines an expo floor with conference stages on payments, fintech, retail and e-commerce across the continent.

Who should attend: PSPs and acquirers working in South Africa and wider SSA, mobile-money and wallet providers, cross-border remittance players, e-commerce merchants, banks with BaaS ambitions and vendors selling fraud, KYC and checkout tooling.

Why it matters: Africa's payment landscape is split between cards, instant EFT, mobile money and cash. Seamless Africa is one of the few large shows where retailers and payment providers meet in one hall, which makes it useful for partnership scouting, merchant acquisition and understanding which local methods actually convert.
