Kalabash54 & Amadeus: Making African Travel More Affordable with Flexible Flight Payments
Kalabash54, a fintech travel solutions company under the Wakanow Group, is set to transform how Africans pay for flights. The company has joined forces with Outpayce from Amadeus to integrate its Pay Small Small (PSS) product into the Amadeus Xchange Payment Platform (XPP). This strategic partnership will broaden access to flexible flight payment options, making travel more accessible for a larger segment of the African population.
Expanding Access to Flexible Flight Payments in Africa
The Pay Small Small (PSS) product, launched in 2022, allows passengers to book flights with a partial payment and then spread the remaining balance over a period of time, ranging from 24 hours to six months. Currently available with a select group of Kalabash54’s partner airlines, the integration into the Amadeus XPP represents a significant step forward. According to a statement released from Kalabash54’s Lekki corporate office by CEO Ladi Ojuri, this integration will enable airlines using Amadeus and other industry platforms to offer Pay Small Small, and similar flexible payment plans, to a much wider audience. This expansion directly addresses the financial constraints often associated with travel, providing a convenient alternative for many travellers across the continent. The partnership aims to improve travel accessibility and affordability for Africans.
In conclusion, the collaboration between Kalabash54 and Outpayce from Amadeus is poised to reshape the travel landscape in Africa. By integrating Pay Small Small into Amadeus XPP, the partnership will empower more individuals to experience the world by making flight bookings more manageable and financially flexible. This initiative aligns with the growing demand for accessible and affordable travel solutions within the rapidly evolving African tech ecosystem.
