Payoneer Global Inc.
A fintech company that lets freelancers, online sellers, and small businesses send and receive cross-border payments in many currencies and countries, sidestepping traditional banking hurdles; its marketplace customers use it to pay contributors and sellers. Founded in 2005 by Israeli entrepreneur Yuval Tal, Payoneer grew out of a prepaid Mastercard that let platforms like Upwork and Getty Images pay contributors instantly. Its name blends "pay" and "pioneer," and its logo's letter "y" is drawn as a subtle arrow pointing the way forward.
