Who we are
Yoco is one of Africa's largest fintech companies, building an ecosystem of intuitive, dynamic payments and business tools. These connected tools are easy to tailor to diverse business needs, enabling brave businesses to do better and grow.
Founded in 2015, we now process over US$2 billion annually for over 400,000 businesses.
We are powered by over 330 people across our three talent hubs in the Netherlands and South Africa. We come from different backgrounds and have different viewpoints, so we can keep building cutting-edge financial tools for growing businesses.
We're growing fast. With growth comes compelling challenges, which means that if you're an ambitious problem-solver with big ideas you will be challenged, stimulated, and grow with us at Yoco. You have a passion for doing good. You're bright and grounded, experimental and brave.
We believe growing together is a commitment and that it means being uncomfortable and overcoming problems, and when faced with such problems seeing opportunities where others see barriers. But we know it's not for everyone.
We don't stop pushing, we break things to rebuild, we challenge ourselves, and inspire each other. We're constantly evolving — and we're doing it fast.
Be Brave and Grow With Us.
