Egypt, with a population of over 110 million, is one of Africa’s largest and fastest-growing eCommerce markets. The country primarily uses the Egyptian Pound (EGP), and Arabic is the official language. As digital payments gain popularity, Shopify merchants looking to enter the Egyptian market must provide payment options tailored to local consumers' preferences.

Egyptians favor local and mobile payment solutions over international credit cards. Popular platforms include Meeza, Fawry, Vodafone Cash, and Masr Pay, which enable seamless transactions across the country.
