Visa Everywhere Initiative is a global innovation program that tasks start-ups to solve payments and commerce challenges of tomorrow, further enhance their own product propositions and provide visionary solutions for Visa’s vast network of partners.   

The program first launched in the U.S. in 2015 and quickly expanded into a global program with more than 3,950  participating start-ups, which have collectively raised over $2 billion in funding, with 215 finalists and 65 winners selected. The program activates in North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia, Middle East and Africa, and has touched over 75 countries throughout the program’s history. 

“Many of the next generation of PayTech companies are likely to come from the Nordic and Baltic regions. Our role is to be a catalyst for innovation: with our global platform and know-how we offer the capacity to rapidly scale from local ideas to global markets.”
