Zai

Innovative financial services

To power our customers by making innovative financial services accessible to all.

Zai is the result of a 2021 merger between two highly successful fintech startups – Dublin based peer-to-peer currency exchange marketplace CurrencyFair, formed in 2009, and Australian automated payments engine Assembly Payments, formed in 2013.

This merger was the result of a major investment by Standard Chartered and was carried out with the strategic aim of jointly offering a full range of payment services. This indicates that the new company is now a major player in a fintech industry that’s expected to be worth almost $700 billion by 2030.

To accelerate operations across its eight locations in Europe, America, Asia and Oceania, the company intends to triple its staff headcount over the next few years while rolling out more tech solutions.
