At Verto, we’re passionate about helping businesses in Emerging Markets reach the world. What first started as an FX solution for trading Nigerian Naira has now become a market-leading platform, changing the way thousands of businesses transfer money in and out of Emerging Markets.
We believe that where you do business shouldn’t determine how successful you are or your ability to scale. Millions of companies daily juggle long settlement periods, high transaction fees, and issues accessing liquidity to trade with African businesses. We’re on a mission to change this by creating equal access to easy payment and liquidity solutions that are already a given in developed markets.We’re not alone in recognising the need to solve for Emerging Markets. Backed by world-class investors including Y-Combinator, Quona, and MEVP, we power payments for some of the most disruptive start-ups globally.
