About us

Our story

When Volt launched in 2019, we recognised how open banking has the power to transform how businesses, wherever they happen to be, send and receive money.

So, we set about building a ‘network of networks’ that enables merchants across the globe to receive and send account-to-account payments. In real time. 

Now, on the back of $23.5 million Series A and $60 million Series B funding rounds, we’re well on the way to powering a real-time payments revolution.
