Our mission
To create a safe and accessible global payments highway
One of the first payments to travel on TerraPay’s platform was $13
sent from Dubai to Tanzania by a worker who cleaned hotel rooms to support
his family.
TerraPay was founded to ensure this man’s money would receive the respect, security, and urgency that the largest Business-to-Business payments do. Ever since, we have been building an ever-expanding payments network that empowers financial inclusion and equity for every payment, however small or large.
