Ripple has partnered with African payment infrastructure provider Chipper Cash to support crypto-enabled cross-border payments.

According to a March 27 announcement, Chipper Cash will use Ripple Payments for its cross-border transactions as part of the deal. The companies said the partnership is designed to offer faster, cheaper, more efficient settlements.

In March, Ripple also secured a Dubai license to offer cryptocurrency-powered payments in the United Arab Emirates. The company will also likely step up its activities following its recent win against the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
