We are anchored by our origins as merchants, and driven by an unwavering pursuit to enable large enterprises & organisations to freely devise innovative payment experiences.

"Not long before we founded Zepto, we'd been merchants ourselves. We knew that simply delivering incremental change from the old system would deliver massive benefits to business in areas of efficiency and process. We also knew that the real-time opportunity that was taking shape just over the horizon would deliver seismic, once-in-a-generation change, and we were determined to lead from the front in that space."
