South Africa digital payments growing, plus updates on SoFi and PayPal
A new report from EBC Financial Group shows South Africa's digital payment market is expanding fast. Card transactions are expected to pass $159 billion by 2025 due to better mobile payment options and more merchants accepting cards.
In stock movements, National Bank of Greece had a strong day, trading up 6% to €13.77 which is near its 52-week high. SoFi also finished up 4.9% at $27.46.
PayPal and Visa didn't see the same momentum. PayPal dropped 0.4% to $58.14, hovering near its yearly low, while Visa dipped 1.2% to $346.48.

Digital payments are clearly gaining steam, but the stock reactions show it’s not a rising-tide-for-everyone trade. SoFi catching a bid while PayPal stays stuck near lows says growth stories still matter more than just being in payments.
