      The Nomba Authentication API provides OAuth2-based authentication for

      Client-Credentials for server-to-server integrations and PKCE (Proof Key
      for Code Exchange) for client-side applications. Developers obtain HTTP
      bearer tokens that are used to authorize subsequent API calls across the
      Nomba platform.

      The Nomba Global Payout API is a single integration point that enables

      Republic of Congo via Mobile Money. The API embeds FX sourcing and
      compliance directly into the technical layer, eliminating the need for
      operators to manage foreign exchange processes. It solves capital lockups
      in cross-border trade by handling currency conversion automatically when
      funds land in a virtual account.
