About Pockyt
Building the operating layer
for global money movement.
Pockyt is a payments infrastructure company headquartered in New York with teams across APAC. We give global businesses one programmable layer to collect, hold, convert, and pay out across 27 currencies, 11 domiciled markets, and stablecoin rails — replacing the vendor-chain model that's been the default for decades.

What We Believe
The thesis in three sentences.
The next era of cross-border money movement won't be solved by a better filling. It'll be solved by a better box — an operating layer that makes money programmable across rails, currencies, and counterparties.

For forty years, cross-border has been a tower of vendors: collection here, payout there, FX from a third party, treasury managed across separate banks. Each clipping their margin off the top. Each operating their own ledger. Pockyt collapses that tower into four primitives — Checkouts, Payouts, Virtual Accounts, and Programmable Logic — threaded together by one ledger and one API.

How Pockyt Got Here
Build from the last mile up.
Pockyt has been building cross-border payments infrastructure for nearly a decade. The arc, in three beats — from a focused payments platform to the operating layer it is today.
Beat 01
Founded in 2017.

A focused cross-border payments platform

Pockyt was founded in New York with a deliberately narrow focus: making it possible for global brands to accept the payment methods their international customers actually used. In the early years, that meant integrating directly with local payment rails and wallets that legacy providers treated as edge cases.

Beat 02
The infrastructure years.

From payments product to payments infrastructure

Over time, the work shifted from front-end acceptance to underlying infrastructure: in-country virtual accounts, multi-currency treasury, regulatory licensing across markets, and direct integration with local clearing systems. The thesis sharpened — owning the infrastructure from the last mile up was the only way to give enterprises real control, visibility, and speed.

Beat 03
The operating layer.

Today: four primitives, one programmable surface

Pockyt today operates across 11 domiciled markets, 27 currencies, and 300+ local methods, with native USDC settlement live through a partnership with Circle and a hosted MCP server for AI agents. The four primitives — Checkouts, Payouts, Virtual Accounts, and Programmable Logic — sit on one ledger behind one API.

How We Operate
What you can expect when working with us.
01

Infrastructure-grade reliability.

We treat the platform as money infrastructure, not a consumer product. SLAs, audit trails, idempotency, and signed webhooks aren't features — they're the contract.

  • SOC 2 Type II · annually audited
  • PCI DSS Level 1 · highest tier
  • TLS 1.3 · AES-256 · HSM key custody
02

Direct lines, not vendor walls.

Every customer has a named contact and a Slack or Teams channel to our team. No tier-1 support gating you from the engineers who built the thing you're using.

03

Build over rebrand.

We don't reskin other people's infrastructure. The licenses, the banking relationships, the engineering — built or earned in-house, market by market.

We're hiring across engineering and go-to-market.

Senior roles open. We're a small team in build mode, not a large one in maintenance mode.
