Revolutionizing Payments: How Guavapay Leverages Technology Innovation for a Seamless Experience

Guavapay is making waves in the financial world. Founded in 2017 and based in London, this company has seen impressive revenue growth in 2024, with a 71% increase compared to last year. Their customer base is expanding rapidly, and they’ve nearly tripled their London team to meet the rising demand for easy financial solutions.

Guavapay holds licenses in key markets like the UK, Canada, the EU, and Switzerland. With a team of over 500 employees worldwide, they are ready for international growth.

Kamal Hasanov, the Group CEO, shared, “Our focus on customer-friendly technology has driven our growth. We’ve seen increasing monthly sales, and corporate clients are doubling every quarter, especially with our MyGuava Business app. Our loyal customers benefit from our strong solutions for both businesses and personal finance. Guavapay is clearly set to lead the future of payment solutions, offering speed, transparency, and affordability.”

As more small and medium-sized businesses look for cost-effective payment options outside traditional banks, Guavapay steps up to meet these needs. They provide real-time fund transfers, multi-currency accounts, and advanced payment APIs. Their in-house technology enhances efficiency, while partnerships with other organizations expand their service offerings.

Guavapay’s main products, MyGuava (for consumers) and MyGuava Business (for businesses), allow users to open accounts in over 20 currencies, including GBP, USD, and EUR. These accounts enable quick, real-time payments at competitive rates. As a principal member of major card networks like Mastercard and Visa, Guavapay has been registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as a Small Electronic Money Institution since 2019. They offer a range of financial services, including cross-border payments and money transfers through various systems like SWIFT and SEPA.

The company has also partnered with industry leaders to enhance its offerings. MyGuava Business has teamed up with Xero, Ecwid by Lightspeed, and Adobe Commerce (Magento) to improve user experience. With their collaboration with PayPoint, MyGuava users can deposit cash at over 28,000 locations throughout the UK. Additionally, the partnership with Snowdrop Solutions has enhanced the MyGuava App, allowing users to see detailed transaction information, including merchant names and logos, for better clarity.

A recent report from McKinsey highlights the global payments industry’s growth of 7% annually from 2018 to 2023, with a forecast of 5% growth over the next five years. The report emphasizes the importance of innovation in payment technologies. Guavapay’s success reflects the increasing market share of financial institutions dedicated to modern payment solutions that prioritize fraud prevention and compliance while keeping costs low for consumers and businesses.
