The vast majority of the world’s payment system is based on credit cards. Xfers’ mission is to build an Internet Banking Payments API layer across Southeast Asia to facilitate trade across the region, so that the overall economy in the region can thrive and be seen as a cohesive economic region.
When that happens, the quality of life in the region on the whole will improve significantly. We think that Xfers will have an enormous long term impact in this region.
We believe in small teams. Small teams are fast and nimble. Small teams mean less bureaucracy and less management and more getting things done.
We believe that credentials don't say everything. What you love doing is way more important than the credentials you have.
Xfers is backed by YCombinator, 500 Startups, Golden Gate Ventures and Eduardo Saverin.
