Our take
In an increasingly globalised world, Clear Junction is helping financial companies gain access to local payment solutions on a global scale with a platform that enables companies and their customers to deal with payments in multiple currencies through a single channel.
Clear Junction boasts proprietary technology that boosts competitive advantage by giving companies the ability to integrate seamless, automated cross-border payments into their services. The strong product comes with impressive pedigree. The fintech company’s CEO has a history of businesses he touches turning to gold, having undertook business development positions for Payooner, which has gone from tiny start-up to fintech unicorn.
The company will continue to work on developing new products to add to its services, such as a digital collaborative platform and the implementation of localised IBANs across major European countries. It was also named one of Europe's fastest growing companies in the 2024 FT 1000, and its no surprise given the amount of partnerships it has secured recently. With its impressive growth, the future is one of much excitement for Clear Junction.
