“Can a relationship-driven Canadian FX and global payments firm scale globally by embedding Currencycloud's cross-border infrastructure into its existing client base?”
Shift Connect began as a Calgary-based, relationship-first FX and global payments firm targeting Canadian businesses. Recognising growing customer demand beyond Canada, the company partnered with Currencycloud to extend its reach into the US, UK and European markets, leveraging embedded cross-border infrastructure rather than building proprietary rails. This positions Shift Connect as a distribution layer for FX and global payments rather than a technology builder.
