We are an online payment aggregator andf ecommerce platform for SMEs

Current Status

We have more than $10 million in tyransactions and more than 300 B2B customers with 0% churn

Market

Ecommerce market in Azerbaijan is estimated at $6billion in 2023. Every business man who is selling or willing to sell online is our potential customer.

Problem or Opportunity

It is very hard to start selling online in our region. Bank bureaucracy and prices for online sales web site development are extremely high. Additional technical knowledge and a bunch of time is needed just to start accepting online payments

Solution (product or service)

We are an online payment aggregator and ecommerce platform for SMEs. We move offline sellers online within minutes. After a 3 minute online registration every seller can start accepting a wide range of online payments through our solution. All they need is a tax id and a bank card.

Competitors

On global market our top competitor is STRIPE and Paypal. Regarding the local market, there are two companies providing almost the same service as we do, but without so many features of our product.

Advantages or differentiators

Our brand awareness is very high and customers are happy to refer the other sellers to us. We are fast, secure and very flexible, thats why many startups inour region are willing to work with us. also we are well known in the Caucasus region due to our participation in many startup programs and events such as TAKE OFF 2022 (2nd place), ASTANA HUB BATTLE 2022 (semi finalists), MOST VC acceleration program in Almaty (ongoing) and 500 Globnal acceleration program and demo day
