WaaSabi's Wallet-as-a-Service API platform extends
innovative, customer-centric digital payment capabilities to any
business in any industry
SAN
FRANCISCO, Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company
focused on reinventing businesses through innovative
technology solutions, today announced the launch of WaaSabi, a
wallet-as-a-service solution which exposes a single API that
empowers companies to offer payments and collections through
channels their customers already use every day, such as apps,
conversational platforms, apps, websites, software, and more.
Developed by the company's in-house incubator Globant X, WaaSabi is
a B2B fintech solution with more than 42 features in a single API
that offers plug-and-play functionality with payment and services
providers, allowing companies to deliver the e-wallet experience
that best suits their industry and regional needs.
According to Statista, the transaction value of all digital
payments globally is expected to reach more than $15 trillion by 2027, up from $8.5 trillion in 2022. WaaSabi addresses this
growing market by transforming the payments experience
cost-efficiently, enabling even more companies to provide payment
capabilities with various integrations.
"When customers hear `payments business,' they undoubtedly think
of banks, e-wallets, and cash," said Guibert Englebienne,
Co-founder and President of Latam and Globant X.
"Unfortunately, they probably also think about impractical
processes and clunky legacy software. We're changing that with
WaaSabi by helping companies create customer-centric payment
solutions, and maintain complete ownership of their business and
data."
WaaSabi was designed to jump-start any company into the Fintech
space across various industries that need to add payments and
collections to their business and require support in technical
knowledge, identifying strategic partners, and navigating the
regulatory landscape. It provides an API platform that offers
customers the flexibility and security to develop an e-wallet
however they choose with the security of being PCI Compliant. The
solution allows end users to perform a variety of key payment and
collection tasks, including:
- Get help via conversational chatbots
- Add balance with a debit card
- Send and receive money with Virtual Ticket
- Money request with payment button or QR code
- Withdraw money by ATM
- Withdraw money to a bank account
- Make donations

WaaSabi also offers key security features, such as:

Fraud and AML capabilities

transformative technology into platforms. Other Globant X platforms
