ABOUT
What is this Payap sorcery?
The way we were paying wasn’t ideal. Stuffed wallets, multiple banking apps, and the classic surcharge sting. So, when open banking burst onto the scene, we saw an opportunity to make things right. To make paying simpler and smarter – not bad, eh?
And ta-dah! Payap was born. Giving Kiwi a better way to pay. None of the faff or extra checkout fees. Just fast, easy payments that put you in control – game on!
Who is Centrapay?
Built right here in Aotearoa, Centrapay is a fintech on a mega mission to revolutionise the way we pay.
If Payap is the star on stage, think of Centrapay as the back-stage support making it all happen. While Payap is the app on your phone, Centrapay is the technology that makes sure every transaction is seamless and secure.
Centrapay also offers Payap to businesses wanting to start accepting Payap - both for instore and ecommerce transactions. So when you see Centrapay or the shared Payap and Centrapay icon on terminals or online, you know Payap is your go-to way to pay!
