With a population of over 21 million, Malawi is an emerging eCommerce market in Southeastern Africa. The country uses the Malawian Kwacha (MWK), and English and Chichewa are the official languages. Shopify merchants targeting Malawi should integrate local payment methods to better serve the growing online shopping market and increase sales potential.

Why Target Malawi’s eCommerce Market?

Malawian shoppers prefer local payment methods over international credit cards. Integrating mobile money services like MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, and TNM Mpamba with CartDNA’s Shopify payment solutions enables businesses to tap into the growing digital economy and enhance sales, even without being physically present in Malawi.

Key Benefits of Local Payment Methods for Shopify Merchants

  • Higher Conversion Rates – Malawian customers trust familiar payment methods, reducing cart abandonment.
  • Faster Transactions – Seamless checkout experiences improve customer satisfaction.
  • Market Expansion – Reach more shoppers who prefer local payment solutions.
  • Better Customer Trust – Local payments enhance credibility and legitimacy.
  • Increased Mobile Sales – Mobile wallets and digital payment platforms are widely used in Malawi.
