Mukuru named among top cross-border payment providers

Mukuru, a leading next-generation financial services platform, has once again secured its position among the world's most influential cross-border payment providers, earning a spot on the 2025 FXC Intelligence Cross-Border Payments 100 list. This marks the sixth consecutive year the company has been recognised, a testament to its resilience, innovation, and growing influence in the global fintech space.

The FXC Intelligence list highlights the top 100 companies shaping the future of international payments, featuring major banks, fintechs, and financial institutions. Mukuru joins this elite group as a standout African player making significant strides in expanding digital financial services in emerging markets.

Renowned for its focus on financial inclusion, particularly across Africa, Mukuru has been instrumental in enabling millions of underserved individuals and small businesses to engage with formal financial systems. Through secure, reliable, and affordable cross-border payment solutions, the company continues to empower communities and drive economic participation in an increasingly digital world.

Andy Jury, Group CEO of Mukuru, welcomed the recognition as a validation of the company's mission. "Mukuru's continued inclusion on the FXC Intelligence list is both an honour and a validation of our mission to drive financial inclusion at scale," he said. "Being recognised six years in a row highlights the value we bring to the growing cross-border payments market as a proudly African business with expertise in bridging the gap in formal and informal economies across the continent and beyond."

Mukuru's sustained growth comes at a time when the cross-border payments industry is undergoing rapid transformation. As more economies embrace digital transactions, companies like Mukuru are proving vital in ensuring that no one is left behind - particularly in regions with limited access to traditional banking infrastructure.

FXC Intelligence, a leading authority on global cross-border payment data and analytics, praised Mukuru for its consistent impact in the sector and its role in advancing digital financial access for marginalised populations.

As financial technology continues to evolve, Mukuru's recognition on the global stage reaffirms its position as a trailblazer committed to building inclusive financial systems and fostering economic resilience in Africa and beyond.
