OurPass is a one-click checkout solution for African e-commerce retailers and customers. If you're not familiar with the term “one-click checkout”, it refers to a payment solution where customers can purchase products and services simply by clicking a single button- instead of being redirected to another page or having to fill endless forms.
OurPass makes paying for purchases easier, faster, and safer. Now you don't have to fumble with your wallet or give up your private financial information whenever you buy something. OurPass automatically remembers your cards and payment information so you can shop and pay without any hassle.
All you have to do is
1. Sign up on OurPass/ Download the OurPass App
2. Enter your personal details once and for all
3. Go to your favourite online store. (Note: not all merchants are signed up to OurPass.)
4. Choose the item(s) you would like to buy and add them to your cart as usual.
5. Then click "Checkout with OurPass".
Simple as ABC!
