Kenya’s Triply, a Kenyan-based travel-tech company providing software for travel businesses, has integrated Atlas to offer embedded multi-currency payment solutions to clients across Africa, speeding up transactions, reducing costs, and maintaining full regulatory compliance.
The Atlas Suite also includes features critical for the African market, such as local collection accounts, centralized treasury tools, and last-mile payouts via bank transfers or mobile money. These capabilities support businesses in executing bulk payments, including payroll and remittances, in a secure and compliant manner.
“We have witnessed the hurdles businesses face in scaling operations across borders, especially in African markets. Atlas is a transformative solution built to eliminate these challenges and accelerate growth,” says Ola Oyetayo, CEO and Co-founder of Verto.
Triply is just one of the businesses in Africa that that are grappling with fragmented financial ecosystems, regulatory complexity, limited access to local banking services, and currency volatility, challenges that have historically hindered cross-border trade and digital commerce. With the launch of Atlas Suite, firms like Triply address these pain points by offering instant access to local accounts, deep FX liquidity, and a fully compliant infrastructure supporting 49 currencies across multiple markets.
The Atlas Suite is an API platform for cross-border payments for financial institutions, digital marketplaces, and platforms. It aims to empower businesses to offer fully integrated banking, FX, and payment services through a single API integration.
The Atlas Suite comprises distinct offerings:
- Atlas for Fintechs: Designed for fintech companies, digital banks, and financial institutions, this solution allows seamless integration of Verto’s banking, FX, and payments infrastructure, without the need for local licensing or in-house system development. Institutions can provide local virtual accounts in over 12 African markets, execute real-time FX across 49 currencies, and send payments to over 100 countries, all under their business name.
- Atlas for Platforms: Non-financial platforms such as e-commerce, logistics, or travel tech providers can now embed financial services directly into their products using Verto’s infrastructure. This removes the burden of regulatory compliance and technology development, allowing them to offer embedded payments, FX, and account management with ease.
- White Label Broker Services: Atlas also provides an end-to-end white label solution, enabling brokers to offer branded cross-border financial services to their customers. With full control over pricing, brokers can generate new revenue streams without heavy capital or operational expenditure.
