How to update your payment method on Jumia Kenya

This is how to update your payment method on Jumia Kenya. Jumia Kenya will no longer pay its sellers using checks effective January 1, 2019.

Jumia Kenya has been sending messages to sellers informing them of the change. Sellers had up to December 30, 2018 to make the switch.

Jumia Kenya will however pay through Bank transfers and mobile money. This according to the company this will reduce the time it takes for sellers to have their money after selling on the platform.

Here is the message.

As technology develops and more business functions are being moved online, cheques are dropping in popularity. Jumia is no exception in this shift. From the 1st of January 2019 will NOT use cheques as a method of payment for sellers.

When a Jumia hands you a cheque it is only the beginning of a long and demanding paper-chain. In addition to adding the payment to your records, you must then deposit the cheque at your bank – filling in forms and taking time out of your already busy day.

To grow your business, it’s crucial to reduce the number of missed payments. Chasing missed payments can take time away from attracting new customer and growing your business.

We count on you to help simplify this activity, so we can concentrate on providing the best service.

ADVANTAGES: 


Payment possible every week (depending on your badge).


No Jumia fees, and bank fees for transfers.


No more waiting in Jumia’s offices. 


All payments by bank transfer and Mobile Money are processed first by our Finance team.
