About

Payments built by engineers, for engineers.

Beys was founded in Dar es Salaam by a small team who spent years running payments at scale and got tired of held funds, opaque ledgers, and queues that never drained.

Our mission

Money should move at the speed of an HTTP request. We build a payment gateway where every transaction is idempotent, every event is signed, and every shilling and dollar is traceable to a request id — so engineering teams across East Africa and beyond can ship financial features without wrestling with legacy banking infrastructure.

Currencies we support

Beys settles natively in both Tanzanian Shillings (TZS) and US Dollars (USD). Merchants can charge in either currency, and customers see prices in their preferred denomination.
