Our take
International companies usually need to rely on various country-specific financial service providers. For example, companies operating in two countries would require corporate cards in both locations and a cross-border payment solution provider. However, as remote work has become increasingly mainstream, the need for cross-border expense management solutions is expected to increase.
Jeeves is a company that aims to solve the aforementioned problem by creating an 'all-in-one expense management platform'. Businesses using Jeeves can make payments in multiple currencies without FX fees and manage all the business payments in one single app.
With thousands of clients across 25+ countries, including Jumpstart, Bitso, and Worky, it is clear that Jeeves has captured significant interest in the market. The company has seen strong levels of investment that will fund expansion throughout Latin America, Canada and Europe, as well as support the scaling of its infrastructure to cover more currencies.
