Why Mobile Money Matters for Traders

Mobile‑money platforms like M‑Pesa and Flutterwave have become the primary financial lifeline for millions in emerging markets. They offer:

• Instant, 24/7 access to funds via smartphone

• Low fees compared with international bank transfers

• No need for traditional bank accounts, broadening financial inclusion

For traders, this means you can move capital in and out of your brokerage quickly, react to market events in real time, and avoid delays that can cost you money.

Mobile‑Money Services Supported by Pepperstone

Pepperstone integrates the most widely used mobile‑money networks across Africa, Asia, and beyond. When you open a live account, you’ll see these options under “Funding Methods” in your Client Area:

• M‑Pesa (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda): Uses STK Push or Paybill integration for instant deposits.

• Flutterwave (Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and other African markets): Aggregates local mobile‑money rails (Paga, MTN MoMo, etc.) and card schemes.

• ZotaPay (select emerging markets in Asia and Africa): A single gateway for multiple mobile‑money wallets.

These services appear automatically once your account is verified, alongside credit/debit cards, Skrill, Neteller, and bank transfers.

Step‑By‑Step: Depositing via Mobile Money

1. Log In to Personal Area– Visit Pepperstone.com, click Login, and enter your credentials.

2. Navigate to Funding → Deposit– Select “Mobile Money” and then your provider (e.g., M‑Pesa or Flutterwave).

3. Enter Amount– Specify how much you wish to deposit in your account currency.

4. Initiate Transfer– Follow the on‑screen prompts. For M‑Pesa, you’ll receive an STK Push on your phone to authorize the payment with your PIN. For Flutterwave, you may be redirected to your mobile‑money app or asked to enter your mobile‑money credentials.

5. Confirmation & Credit– Funds typically appear in your trading account within minutes. You’ll see a confirmation screen and receive an email receipt.

💡 Tip: Always ensure your mobile‑money wallet has sufficient balance plus any small transaction fee before initiating the transfer.

Step‑By‑Step: Withdrawing to Mobile Money

1. Go to Funding → Withdraw in your Client Area.

2. Choose the Same Mobile‑Money Service you used to deposit (e.g., M‑Pesa).

3. Enter Withdrawal Amount and confirm.

4. Authorize the Transfer in your mobile‑money app if prompted.

5. Receive Funds in your mobile wallet—usually within 24 hours.

Pepperstone charges no withdrawal fees; your mobile‑money provider’s standard charges (if any) will apply.

Regional Availability and Considerations

• Kenya: M‑Pesa deposits and withdrawals are seamless. Pepperstone’s integration supports both STK Push and Paybill methods.

• Nigeria & Ghana: Flutterwave offers multiple local rails (Paga, MTN MoMo), so you can fund via whichever wallet you use.

• South Africa: Mobile‑money usage is growing; ZotaPay aggregates services like MTN MoMo and others.

• Other Markets: Check your Personal Area for “Mobile Money” under Funding if you’re in East Africa, West Africa, or selected Asian markets.

If you don’t see your local mobile‑money option, you can fund an e‑wallet (Skrill/Neteller) via mobile money with a third‑party exchanger, then deposit to Pepperstone from the e‑wallet.

Fees, Limits & Processing Times

• Deposit Fees: None from Pepperstone. Mobile‑money providers may charge a small transaction fee (typically 0.5–2%).

• Withdrawal Fees: Pepperstone does not charge; provider fees apply.

• Minimum/Maximum: Minimum deposit via mobile money is usually around USD 10 or equivalent; maximum limits depend on your mobile‑money wallet’s daily cap.

• Processing: Deposits are instant; withdrawals post within 24 hours (often the same day).

Security and Best Practices

• Segregated Funds: Pepperstone holds client money in segregated accounts—your funds are never used for corporate expenses.

• Two‑Factor Verification: Always enable 2FA on your Pepperstone login and your mobile‑money wallet.

• Check URLs: Ensure you’re on the official Pepperstone site (HTTPS) before entering credentials.

• Keep Records: Save transaction receipts or screenshots until funds post to your trading account.
