Use when

You need to embed bill payments, airtime top-up, or collections into a Nigerian product without building everything from scratch.

Skip when

You only need a simple card payment gateway โ€” Paystack is faster to integrate for that.

Paga Engine requires a business registration and compliance review before going live. Sandbox testing is available immediately. Very strong for bill payment use cases.
