Jumia

Jumia is a pan-African e-commerce company often described as the "Amazon of Africa." Headquartered in Berlin and listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker JMIA since its 2019 IPO, Jumia Technologies AG operates a third-party marketplace, a logistics network (Jumia Logistics), and a digital payments arm (JumiaPay) across eight African markets as of 2026: Egypt, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Senegal, and Uganda. The company exited Algeria in February 2026 and previously wound down Cameroon, Gabon, Rwanda, and Tunisia as part of a multi-year restructuring program targeting full-year profitability in 2027. Jumia's commerce platform connects more than 100,000 sellers with consumers across diverse categories including phones and electronics, fashion, home and living, beauty, FMCG, and groceries. Its developer surface is non-trivial: the Jumia Vendor API (vendor center, OAuth 2.0) supports order, inventory, product, and shipment integration for marketplace sellers, while the legacy SellerCenter API (a SellerCenter / Rocket Internet lineage shared with Lazada and Daraz) remains documented with PHP, Python, Ruby, and Node SDKs. JumiaPay exposes a Merchant API for payment creation, verification, refund, recurring-payment agreements, and callback-based webhooks, plus official WooCommerce and Magento payment-gateway plugins. The Jumia GitHub organization is sparse (an open-source playbook, Jumia Tech Blog, and Tech in Porto event site) while the JumiaPay AIG GitHub org hosts the WooCommerce and Magento gateway plugins under Apache 2.0.

Jumia is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Ecommerce, Marketplace, Africa, Pan-African, and Retail.

Jumia’s developer surface includes GitHub presence, engineering blog, YouTube channel, and 29 more developer resources.
