About Us
PaybyAir is a technology company building tools that rethink and simplify everyday/regular activities we engage in. We create new but simple and reliable solutions that solve real problems using artificial intelligence. We do not copy what already exists but create what has been missing; making it work for more people, in more places.
Our Story
PayByAir began with a simple question:
What would everyday systems look like if they were built from the ground up for the people using them?
We've seen firsthand how gaps in infrastructure and access create unnecessary friction for millions across the continent. So instead of waiting on legacy systems to catch up, we started building — lightweight, scalable, and user-first products that work for real-world conditions.
From the beginning, our mission has been clear:
To design tools that not only function but also fit.
The Why Behind PayByAir
We believe that access should never be a luxury. Whether it's making a payment, proving who you are, or connecting to a service, people deserve tools that work with their reality.
At PayByAir, we build technology that bridges the gaps left by outdated systems. We build for the people in between, the overlooked, the underserved, the ones making it work however they can.
