Binance continues to deepen its footprint in Africa. In a new announcement, one of the world’s leading blockchain and cryptocurrency infrastructure providers has expanded access to cryptocurrency in other African nations including Benin, Cameroon, Cote d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Togo, and Senegal —allowing users in those countries to purchase crypto directly through mobile money payments enabled through local partnerships.
This strengthens Binance’s commitment to providing simple and secure access to cryptocurrency for users across Africa, reinforcing the platform’s vision of financial inclusion.
In a press statement, Ms. Samantha Fuller, Spokeswoman for Binance said, “We remain focused on advancing financial inclusion and delivering user-friendly solutions for crypto adoption across Africa. This expansion into West and Central Africa is a significant step in our mission to increase crypto adoption, providing millions of people with more direct access to the global digital economy.”
This new service currently supports only buy transactions, further simplifying the entry point for new crypto users in these regions, while providing them with a reliable and secure platform to acquire digital assets.

- Log in to your Binance app and select [Add Funds] from the homepage.
