Global payments platform specializing in high-value cross-border payments for education, healthcare, travel and B2B sectors.
Takes a small fee on each payment moved, often including a currency-conversion margin when a student or patient pays from abroad, and adds software fees for billing tools. Education is the largest vertical. It has bought payments-software firms, including Invoiced in 2022, to extend beyond collecting tuition.
Moat: narrow (switching costs, distribution, network effects). Deep integrations into university/hospital billing systems and global payment rails create high switching costs.
