Fuse is on a mission to bring real time cross border payments to the Middle East, helping global businesses to access the region without changing their payment stack. We believe MENA presents one of the most exciting payment opportunities in the world today - as one of the most financially isolated but fastest growing markets globally, the region is evolving fast and Fuse is providing the infrastructure required to keep up.
To date we've raised over $8.6mn to help us radically change how money moves in and out of MENA, from some of the best investors including Northzone, Flourish, Raba, and Alter Global. With our head office in Dubai, we're trusted by payment companies and enterprise businesses all over the world to provide the crucial infrastructure for money movement in the region. Processing payments to contractors on Deel, hosts on Airbnb, sellers on Etsy, and many more global brands is just the beginning.
We're looking for people that love what they do and are passionate about making local payments accessible to brands all over the world.
