The story

Founded in 2018 as a SaaS platform for managing global remote teams, Lano evolved from basic contractor management into a full global employment and payroll platform covering EOR, payroll consolidation, and multi-currency salary payments. The payments layer — initially with a limited supplier, then upgraded to Rapyd and subsequently to Currencycloud — is central to the product, enabling the Lano Wallet for bulk international payroll disbursements. The company positions itself as a unified OS for hiring, managing, and paying distributed workforces across 170+ countries.
