Founding Compliance Lead
Fin (Fin.com) is a global payments infrastructure company that enables businesses to move money instantly across borders using stablecoins and local banking rails.

About Fin
Fin builds the operating system for cross-border payments, replacing traditional multi-intermediary banking networks with a unified liquidity network that settles transactions in minutes rather than days. Its modular APIs cover pay-ins and pay-outs via bank transfers, wires and stablecoins, crypto pay-in/out directly from exchanges, multi-currency international virtual accounts (USD, AED, EUR, INR), named USD SWIFT accounts, and wallet-as-a-service for launching fiat and stablecoin wallets. The company operates a licensed network across 30+ countries and 40+ currencies, holding registrations such as a Payment Services Provider license in the UAE and a Virtual Asset Service Provider license in Lithuania, with US bank sponsorship pending. Fin serves platforms moving large volumes of money, including fintechs, payment service providers, luxury goods companies, gaming platforms, payroll providers, and import/export businesses, offering API, hosted checkout, and dashboard integration paths along with built-in KYC/KYB/AML compliance handling.
