Our History
Peach Payments began after a chance meeting between Rahul Jain and Andreas Demleitner in 2009. As immigrants to South Africa, they were unsure if they would remain - or even when their paths would next cross. But the two knew they had complementary traits. So two years later, they decided to reunite in Cape Town under the banner of Peach Payments - with an ambitious goal of revolutionising the online payment space in South Africa.
Peach Payments moved through the Google Umbono accelerator programme a year later and then immediately set about identifying and solving problems that online merchants were experiencing.
From day one, Peach Payments’ co-founders have prioritised their values of trust, integrity, and customer-centricity, and these are still the backbone of the business.
The payment solutions that we presented to our first clients - some of whom are still present-day clients - remain the most important to the fundamentals of the business. But nearly ten years on, Peach Payments has rapidly expanded its suite of tools to help online businesses scale.
“Payments is an infrastructure play. It’s the roads and the highways that others will drive their trucks on and build their businesses on, and that’s how we built this business.” - Rahul Jain.
