Yuno Selects London as European Headquarters to Power Global Expansion
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Yuno, a leading global financial services orchestration platform, today announced it will be opening an office in London to serve as its official European headquarters. The announcement, made during London Tech Week 2025, marks a significant milestone in Yuno's international expansion and reinforces the company's commitment to serving its growing base of global merchants and partners from the heart of Europe's fintech capital. Establishing our regional headquarters in London is a key step in Yuno's mission to unify payments worldwide Share Yuno's choice of London as its European HQ is driven by several strategic factors: Global Fintech Hub: London's status as a world-leading center for finance, payments, and fintech innovation made it a natural choice for Yuno's European headquarters. The UK capital has attracted tens of billions in fintech investment in recent years, second only to Silicon Valley, and is home to a vibrant ecosystem of banks, startups, and nearly half of Europe's fintech 'unicorn' companies. Talent and Regulatory Support: The city offers access to a world-class pool of fintech talent and a progressive regulatory environment. Yuno will also benefit from the UK's supportive framework – from the Financial Conduct Authority's innovation sandbox to open banking initiatives – which foster fintech growth and innovation. Proximity to Clients and Partners: Establishing a base in London places Yuno close to many multinational merchants, financial institutions, fintech partners, and prospective clients, enabling them to more easily collaborate. Springboard for European Growth: London will serve as a strategic springboard for Yuno's expansion across Europe. The new office will coordinate regional growth efforts, allowing Yuno to tailor its payment solutions to European market needs and swiftly scale its presence in key markets across EMEA. This move comes as part of Yuno's broader international expansion strategy. Over the past year, the company has grown rapidly beyond its Latin American roots, launching in key Asian markets and other regions to meet rising demand for its platform. The company already supports leading global clients – including McDonald's, inDrive, Rappi, among others – processing transactions across more than 80 countries worldwide. Juan Pablo Ortega, Co-Founder and CEO of YUNO, said: 'London is at the heart of the global fintech revolution, so we are thrilled to make it our European home. By opening an office in London, we'll be able to work more closely with our European merchants and partners, recruit from a world-class talent pool, and innovate alongside the UK's vibrant fintech community. This city offers the perfect blend of financial heritage and forward-looking tech culture. Establishing our regional headquarters here is a key step in Yuno's mission to unify payments worldwide, and it positions us to accelerate our growth across Europe while continuing to deliver cutting-edge payment solutions to our clients.' UK Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, Peter Kyle, said: 'London is the world's financial capital, and Yuno setting down roots here is a major boost to the city. Such an innovative, creative and forward-looking business basing its European HQ here will only add to the UK's already-thriving fintech community. 'Fintech is so much more than a buzzword. It's how we ensure financial services are fit for the 21st century, and ensure that people right across the economy can get on with business at the fast pace which today's world demands. When our fintech sector succeeds, it means traditional businesses do too – and that leads to the growth and job creation that are at the heart of the Government's Plan for Change.' Yuno is already recruiting for roles in its London office across engineering, sales, and partnerships, aiming to build a diverse team that will drive its European operations. The company also intends to collaborate with UK fintech initiatives and industry groups – leveraging events like London Tech Week, innovation hubs, and sandbox programs – to share expertise and support the broader community. By planting roots in London, Yuno is positioning itself to both contribute to and benefit from the city's dynamic fintech scene, furthering innovation in digital payments.

Yuno expands its global presence with a new regional headquarters in Qatar
Doha, Qatar: Yuno, the world's leading payment orchestration platform, and the Investment Promotion Agency Qatar (Invest Qatar), today announced a partnership that will accelerate Yuno's expansion into the Middle East, with the establishment of a new regional headquarters in Qatar. This landmark move—unveiled at Web Summit Qatar 2025—aligns with Qatar's Third National Development Strategy that aims to diversify the economy through the cultivation of innovative sectors such as FinTech and Yuno's vision to drive global commerce forward by enabling secure, scalable and seamless payment solutions for businesses of all sizes. Invest Qatar will assist Yuno to establish its operations in Qatar, connect the company with key stakeholders and provide ongoing support to foster the growth and sustainability of its business in Qatar and the region. Driven by a shared commitment to nurturing talent, the partnership provides a framework for the two organisations to collaborate on attracting highly skilled talent, advancing local talent through the exchange of knowledge and best practices and developing joint initiatives to foster innovation and growth of the local fintech ecosystem. Sheikh Ali Alwaleed Al-Thani, CEO, Invest Qatar, said: 'This partnership with Yuno exemplifies our dedication to creating a thriving FinTech ecosystem underpinned by high-skilled talent, innovation and technological advancement. Through this collaboration, we are paving the way for advancements that will not only benefit our economy but also elevate Qatar's standing as an emerging global business hub.' Juan Pablo Ortega, Co-Founder and CEO of Yuno, said: 'Our expansion into the Middle East and the establishment of our regional headquarters in Qatar mark a pivotal step in Yuno's global growth strategy. The region's vibrant and rapidly evolving payments ecosystem aligns perfectly with our mission to enable businesses to accept and make payments anywhere in the world—quickly, securely and cost-effectively.' Strategic Expansion into the Middle East The Middle East's e-commerce sector, valued at $1.888 trillion in 2024, is expanding at a pace that surpasses growth in the US and Europe, fueled by a rapidly evolving digital payments ecosystem. As the fastest-growing real-time payments market globally, the region is experiencing a surge in mobile wallet adoption, mobile banking and progressive government-backed payment systems. The increasing number of payment options and complex regulatory environments create challenges for businesses, highlighting the need for a unified platform to streamline transactions. Qatar's strategic location and advanced digital infrastructure make it an ideal launchpad for companies looking to expand in the Middle East. The country's fintech-friendly ecosystem, supported by government-backed commitments to financial inclusion and regulatory modernisation, also aligns with Yuno's long-term goals of enabling frictionless global commerce. As Yuno establishes its regional headquarters, the company will continue to work closely with local partners to develop tailored solutions that address the specific needs of businesses operating in the Middle East. By leveraging advanced technologies, including AI-driven fraud detection and smart transaction routing, Yuno aims to support the region's evolving financial ecosystem. © Dar Al Sharq Press, Printing and Distribution.
