dLocal enables Airtel Mobile Money for Google Play in Kenya, enhancing financial inclusion and expanding digital access for millions of users.

dLocal, the leading cross-border payment platform connecting global merchants to emerging markets, has enabled Airtel Mobile Money as a payment method for Google Play in Kenya.

Airtel Mobile Money has played a transformative role in Kenya, contributing to one of the highest mobile money penetration rates globally. With over 31.5 million mobile money accounts, representing nearly 80% of the adult population, Airtel is a key enabler of financial inclusion in Kenya and across Africa.

By enabling Airtel Mobile Money as a payment method, dLocal is supporting Google to provide a localized solution that meets the needs of users in Kenya. This reinforces Google’s commitment to expanding digital accessibility, ensuring that a much larger audience can engage with Google Play without barriers.

Enabling Kenyan users to purchase a wide variety of applications on Google Play using Airtel Mobile Money to Kenya is a proud moment for us. This partnership reflects our shared dedication to promoting financial inclusion and empowering users in emerging markets by enabling access to tailored payment solutions.
