Mansa is a fintech-powered mobile app designed to break down the barriers that prevent Africans from accessing global e-commerce. By integrating advanced payment and logistics solutions, Mansa enables both individuals and businesses across Africa to shop internationally with ease. Key Features Virtual Cards: Users receive USD-denominated virtual cards, allowing them to pay on international websites that typically do not accept African-issued cards.

This address is linked to Mansa’s logistics network, ensuring packages are received and forwarded efficiently. Package Forwarding: Once a package arrives at the Mansa warehouse, it is processed and shipped to the user’s home country, with real-time tracking and transparent fee structures.
