Company Background
Payoneer was founded in 2005 by Yuval Tal who, together with other investors, put in $2 million in seed funding. Before Payoneer, Mr. Tal founded E4X which was one of the first startups in the online payments business. E4X, later called BorderFree, was sold to Pitney Bowes in 2015 for USD380 million.
Payoneer always planned to be one of the world leaders in cross border digital payments and today enables millions of businesses and professionals to grow their businesses through Payoneer’s innovative cross-border payments platform.
The company has over 4 million customers, spread across over 200 countries and territories around the globe. Their clients cover a wide range of businesses and operations, from freelancer websites to medical trial candidates.

Yuval Tal was CEO of the Payoneer until 2010, when he became president and handed over the CEO reins to Scott Galit. Mr Galit recently commented on Payoneer’s recent expansion into the British market. “With Brexit, we’re starting to see that it’s actually the right time to engage with businesses in the UK and explain that there’s a new world of opportunity available. It’s very exciting to have a team in London, one of the most important financial and trading hubs in the world.”
