Verto Announces New Cross-Boarder Payment Platform

Verto, a global B2B payments platform, has announced the launch of The Atlas Suite, a next-generation suite of API-first embedded finance solutions designed to simplify cross-border payments for financial institutions, digital marketplaces, and platforms.

Built with scalability and compliance in mind, the Atlas Suite empowers businesses to offer fully integrated banking, FX, and payment services through a single API integration. The infrastructure is available globally to all Verto clients, with a strong focus on supporting Africa’s rapidly growing digital economy.

Africa continues to grapple 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.

Atlas is designed to 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.

“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.

Atlas Suite Offerings

1.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.

2.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.

3.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.

Kenya’s Tech Scene is Already Leveraging the Power of Verto

One of the early adopters is Triply, a Kenyan-based travel-tech company providing software for travel businesses.

By integrating Atlas, Triply can 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.

With Atlas, Verto is positioning itself as a key enabler of Africa’s digital transformation, breaking down financial barriers and helping businesses unlock new opportunities for cross-border growth and trade.
