Top Payments Startups in 2024

We carry the power of the internet in our pockets and use it daily when hailing a taxi or listening to music over the cloud. Now with the emergence of blockchain, we can solve problems that were once deemed impossible. Namely, the problem of trust. One industry that struggles with this need for trust, is the retail value chain; currently unable to take advantage of the data goldmine it’s sitting on. Each party is holding onto its valuable piece of the puzzle, rendering it impossible to create a clear overall picture of behaviour that drives supply and demand. The Beam Platform utilises the power of internet, mobile phones and blockchain to connect all stakeholders of the retail value chain. By making use of a permissioned protocol that protects customers’ privacy, the platform generates behavioural insights which were not possible before. It’s further strengthened through a distributed network of participants who are incentivised to solve problems for the retail value chain.

Yoco offers merchants a choice of 2 mobile card readers that connect to their smart phone / tablet allowing them to accept payments quickly and simply. The solution goes beyond payment processing in that it includes a free point-of-sale app and a free business intelligence portal, enabling business owners to monitor store performance.
