The IDECT project seeks to foster cross-border trade and regional integration through the establishment and implementation of Digital Payments and E-Commerce Policies. **The TRUST SDK will contribute to these objectives by strengthening trust, interoperability, and transaction reliability across digital payment ecosystems, thereby supporting the growth of digital trade and the implementation of Africa’s Single Digital Market vision.**The SDK will assess trust across systems and operators using transaction metadata where no shared risk assessment mechanism currently exists. https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/project-related-procurement/reoi_for_trust_scoring_system.pdf https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/project-related-procurement/tors_for_trust_sdk.pdf ## Related Sections * [Information & Communication Technology](http://www.afdb.org/en/news-keywords/information-communication-technology) * [P-Z1-G00-018](http://www.afdb.org/en/projects-and-operations/p-z1-g00-018) * [Procurement notices](http://www.afdb.org/en/news-keywords/procurement-notices) * [Project-related Procurement](http://www.afdb.org/en/documents/category/project-related-procurement) * [Request for Expression of Interest](http://www.afdb.org/en/documents/category/request-expression-interest) Last updated: 02-Sep-2026 ## Sectors no body * [Agriculture & Agro-industries](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/sectors/agriculture-agro-industries) * [Climate Change](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/sectors/climate-change) * [Economic & Financial Governance](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/sectors/economic-financial-governance) * [Education](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/sectors/education) * [Energy](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/sectors/energy-power) ## Topics no body * [Integrity and Anti-Corruption](http://www.afdb.org/en/about-us/organisational-structure/integrity-and-anti-corruption) * [Civil Society](http://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/topics/civil-society) * [Independent Development Evaluation](https://idev.afdb.org/) * [Independent Recourse Mechanism](http://www.afdb.org/en/about-us/organisational-structure/independent-review-mechanism-irm) * [Fragility & Resilience](https://www.afdb.org/en/topics-and-sectors/topics/fragility-resilience) ## Our microsites no body * [Annual Meetings](https://am.afdb.org/) * [African Economic Conference](https://aec.afdb.org/) * [COP 30](https://www.afdb.org/en/cop30) * [Africa Investment Forum](https://africainvestmentforum.com/) * [The Bank at 60](http://www.afdb.org/en/overview/history/bank-60) ## Connect with us no body * [](https://web.facebook.com/pages/African-Development-Bank-Group/200096809612?ref=ts&_rdc=1&_rdr "Facebook") * [](https://www.linkedin.com/company/african-development-bank/ "Linkedin") * [](https://x.com/AfDB_Group "X Twitter") * [](https://www.instagram.com/afdb_group/ "Instagram") * [](https://vimeo.com/afdb "Vimeo") * [](https://www.youtube.com/user/afdbcomu "YouTube") * [](https://flickr.com/photos/afdbgroup/albums "Flickr") * [](https://www.afdb.org/en/rss-feeds "RSS") * [](https://www.afdb.org/en/contacts "Email") ## Resources for * [Investors](https://www.afdb.org/en/about-us/corporate-information/financial-information/investor-resources) * [Academia](https://www.afdb.org/en/knowledge/macro-economics-policy-forecasting-and-research) * [Opportunities](https://www.afdb.org/en/about-careers/current-vacancies) * [Newsletter](http://www.afdb.org/node/36826) * [Terms & Conditions](http://www.afdb.org/en/terms-and-conditions) * [Cookies & Privacy Policy](http://www.afdb.org/en/cookies-privacy-policy) * [Sitemap](http://www.afdb.org/en/site-index) * [Search](http://www.afdb.org/en/search/node) * [Disclosure and Access to Information](http://www.afdb.org/en/node/20904) * [Blogs](https://blogs.afdb.org/) * [Glossary](http://www.afdb.org/en/glossary) © 2026 [African Development Bank](https://www.afdb.org/)
