Can a UK FX and expense management platform become the financial OS for SMEs managing multicurrency spend and global payments?

The story

Volopa started as an FX and international payments provider for businesses, then expanded into a full expense management platform combining multicurrency prepaid cards, company wallet, and international payments. The company has progressively deepened its embedded finance stack — using Currencycloud for e-money and FX rails, Moorwand for card issuing, ClearBank for UK payment clearing, and Yapily for open banking funding. This positions Volopa as a spend management and cross-border payments platform for UK SMEs rather than a pure FX broker.
