Zimswitch is a Zimbabwean company that provides financial switching and electronic payment processing services. It connects different banks and financial institutions, allowing them to exchange financial transactions with their customers. Zimswitch provides a platform for various electronic payment systems, including ATMs, point-of-sale (POS) devices, mobile banking, and Internet banking.

When a customer uses their debit or credit card at an ATM or POS device, for example, the transaction is processed through the Zimswitch network. The transaction is first sent to the customer’s bank, which then sends it to Zimswitch. Zimswitch then routes the transaction to the appropriate bank that holds the account of the merchant or recipient. This process ensures quick and seamless transfer of funds between different financial institutions in Zimbabwe.

The malfunctioning of Zimswitch can cause transaction delays, limited access to funds, and loss of revenue.
