Launched in 2019, Taptap Send is a mobile app transforming international money transfer by making it as cheap, fast and convenient as possible. We’re tapping into a transformative shift in global finance: from banks to phones. This has been nothing short of a revolution for the emerging markets where the overwhelming majority of the population had been unable to access digital finance previously.

Connecting more than a billion people to the financial grid for the first time, mobile money allows more people to be reached more quickly, securely and efficiently than ever before. Taptap Send is building products to capture this opportunity, providing senders peace of mind with a secure, affordable solution, and recipients with an accessible, convenient way to receive this capital.

The Team

-> Founded by the founders of the non-profit GiveDirectly (philanthropic cash transfers; >300M revenue, fastest-growing NGO of the last 30 years), and Segovia (B2B mobile payment gateway, successful exit).

-> Driven by mission, guided by values (see below) – in deed, not just word.

-> Team as global as the mission, >30 languages from 25 countries (i.e., if you’re interested in learning to make Chicken Moambe, we’re the place).

-> Top performers from top and varied organizations (e.g., Bain, Bolt, Google, McKinsey, SafeBoda, Uber, Zipline) --- we like moving fast, and we hire people that do as well.

Our Investors

Taptap Send is backed by top VCs and investors (Spark Capital, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital (Jim Breyer), Unbound (Shravin Mittal), Wamda (Fadi Ghandour), Firstminute Capital, Slow Ventures (Sam Lessin), Helios Partners (Souleymane Ba), Co-ventures (Ali Hamed), Nikesh Arora, Samih Toukan, and many other context-specific angels).

We are rapidly growing and a great place for those looking for both impact and a fast-paced tech startup environment. Read more about the journey in Reid Hoffman’s words or TechCrunch article.
