Salesforce Recognises Roam for Leading Travel Payments


We’re thrilled to announce that Salesforce, the world’s leading CRM, has featured Roam as their July 2025 Customer Success Story—recognising our fintech platform as Africa’s leading travel payments solution. 

The feature highlights Roam’s ability to securely manage payments at scale, making inbound international payments for the travel sector more predictable and manageable. It shows how Roam’s infrastructure is simplifying cross-border payments, driving greater success for tour operators and travel agents.

The Roam Advantage

Roam provides travel companies with a secure, cost-effective way to accept and manage international payments—at scale.

  • Unbeatably low transaction fees for inbound credit cards and bank transfers
  • Clients pay in USD, GBP, EUR, or AUD at a fixed FX rate for up to two years in advance
  • 100% reliability and scalability
  • Full FX risk mitigation

Roam’s Fintech Solution

Roam is built on Salesforce’s infrastructure for its flexibility, security, and scalability—enabling a tailored solution with robust, enterprise-grade controls. Sensitive tasks such as FX bookings, payments, and settlements are managed securely with built-in approvals and permissions.

Roam has experienced extraordinary growth. In just a few years, we’ve served 26,000 travellers, processed R3.4 billion in trading, and mitigated R630 million in FX exposure across nearly 3,000 contracts. With a team of fewer than 20, this scale is made possible by 88 automated flows that manage both internal and external processes—from customer onboarding to real-time FX execution.

Looking Ahead

Roam’s ongoing investment in technology is making global travel sales easier for our customers. Being recognised by Salesforce is a major milestone—but it’s also a reminder that we’re just getting started.
