Through the Eastern Africa Regional Digital Integration Project (#EARDIP), the EAC is supporting implementation of the EAC Cross-Border Payment System Masterplan, a key milestone towards seamless cross-border payments across the region.

The Masterplan will:

✅ Improve interoperability between national payment systems
✅ Reduce the cost and time of cross-border transactions
✅ Expand financial inclusion
✅ Support digital trade and investment
✅ Strengthen regional financial integration and economic resilience

By building the digital infrastructure and policy frameworks that enable faster, safer and more affordable cross-border payments, #EARDIP is helping lay the foundation for a more connected and competitive East African Single Digital Market.
