We plan on rolling out some corresponding banking services this year to help people with multi-currency accounts and international wires - but it would still be under our US charter. No short term plans to go international - there's a lot of ground we need to cover here. We tend to like to go very deep in an area instead of getting to spread thin.

I can tell you MANY countries are NOT being served by services like STRIPE (South Africa for example) ! I always feel like there is a big opportunity bringing "these financial startups" to where the major players are NOT.

Congrats on releasing ! :) I would use it, if it was available in South Africa :P

Yeah, it's a tough spot. For the big players, there's heavy investment to enter a new market due to local regulations. A local startup could probably do it more easily, but while they grow there's always the risk the big players might decide they're a threat, they want that market, and invest rapidly and dump the local startup.

Looks like Paystack is available in South Africa and might be worth checking out if you haven't already :-)
