iPiD is a fast-growing, venture-backed fintech start-up with a vision to simplify, secure, and streamline global payments. Our story began in 2021 when our founders, who have held senior roles at major payments and technology companies, recognized a gap in the market for easy, secure, and seamless international transactions. We are a global team with representatives in Singapore, India, Belgium, Malaysia, the Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, and Vietnam, bringing together diverse perspectives to drive innovation in the fintech industry.
Our Mission
Our mission is to facilitate trust in the global financial ecosystem, and we achieve this by partnering with financial services providers such as banks, payment systems, payment fintechs, and wallets. We offer two core solutions, Validate and Fetch, both of which are designed to provide an enhanced payment journey that reduces cost, mitigates fraud, and improves the overall customer experience.
As a technology company, our philosophy is to provide clients with the simplicity of a single API solution while ensuring the highest level of compliance with data security and data localization requirements. We employ robust measures like bilateral encryption between clients and partners, have a no-data storage policy, and adhere to a decentralized model where no data is visible or transformed in iPiD's central routing engine.
iPiD is built for all
We do not aim to replace banks, payment fintechs, wallets, or remittance companies; nor do we replace existing payment rails. Instead, we complement and enhance their services, bringing a new level of ease, security, and seamlessness to cross-border payments. Welcome to a world where payments are simple, secure, and seamless. Welcome to iPiD.
