Wajub vs Moneroo
Wajub and Moneroo do the same job: one integration, several payment providers behind it. They differ on pricing, the number of gateways and what they say about failover during outages.
In short
Moneroo presents itself as a payment orchestration platform and states that it is not a payment service provider. You connect the gateways of your choice, Flutterwave, Paystack, pawaPay, CinetPay, Stripe and others, and collect through a single API.
Wajub works on the same principle. It lets you set the route for each payment with your priorities and your rules, sends a mobile money payment through another connection during an outage, and collects MTN MoMo and Orange Money in Cameroon with no provider contract, through the Wajub rail.

- If the gateway goes down
Wajub
A mobile money payment that fails moves automatically to the next connection, with nothing to redo on your side. A connection that fails repeatedly is set aside, then takes its place back as soon as it works again. Card payments are the exception: they stay with the provider the card was entered with.
