Who we are

This is our story

The Whoosh Payment Gateway is hosted on the latest and most robust payment system, including the Payment Cards Industry (PCI) Compliance. Whoosh does not only provide off-the shelf technology but also consults and project manages the client’s need to ensure optimal deployment of the payment platform. Whoosh is South Africa’s first black owned and managed payment solutions company.

Whoosh is a company that was established to participate within the convergence of technology and payment solutions in South Africa. Whoosh was founded in 2014 after recognizing the need for mobile card readers in South Africa. After many iterations of the business model it then pivoted to a payment gateway where it has gone to realise great success in offering a compelling solution to the South African payment industry.

Being a Proudly South African business, our guiding principle is that of Creating Shared Value where we strive to contribute not only to our customers but to the broader economy and environment within which we operate.
