Opera Launches Opay for Airtime Purchase and Bill Payments

Opay is a web payment solution launched in Kenya by popular web browser—Opera; this is coming after 5 months of beta test. Opay enables users to make fast and secure payment and also shop and pay for products and services through their mobile or web browser.

It's worth noting that this system will also be available to other browsers, as it can be used for airtime top-ups and settlement of utility bills such as electricity, cable TV, etc. During the test period, Opay was limited to Safaricom in Kenya, but now, Airtel and Telkom mobile phone accounts have also been added.

OPay is currently available through opera web portal at http://operapay.com and hopefully, it'll soon roll out to native mobile apps to enable fast, easy, and secure payments and money transfers. The system is also available in Nigeria, but limited to airtime purchase, and that's because it has not be officially unveiled there.
