Ibrahim Farag, Nexta’s CEO, remarks: “We are proud to secure the trust of the CBE and Visa, and this is only the beginning. This is shaping up to be a highly competitive market. We await the formal announcement of the EKYC and Digital Banking Guidelines to be one of the early applicants. This is a vast market, and we are leading the wave.”

Nexta pledges to provide a new and wholesome banking experience for numerous market segments and contribute as a significant player to the creation of the Egyptian era of digitisation. Our partnership with Visa allows for exchanging expertise and penetrating an upcoming market.” Malak ElBaba, Egypt Country Manager at Visa, added “We are delighted with such partnership as it aligns with our strategy to backing Fintech as the enablers for financial inclusion. Nexta needed a partner that was committed to supporting their breakthrough into the market and delivering something truly distinctive. That’s where Visa is able to support with its global network capabilities and cross-market expertise. ”
