In 2003, Philip Fayer founded Nuvei with a vision to transform how businesses accept and process payments globally. What started as a payment processing company has evolved into a comprehensive fintech platform that today serves over 200 markets, with local acquiring capabilities in 50 countries and support for 150 currencies. Nuvei's modular technology enables merchants to accept next-gen payment methods, from traditional cards to 700+ alternative payment methods and even cryptocurrencies, all through a single integration that scales with their business growth.
Nuvei has grown through strategic innovation and acquisitions, including the rebranding of Pivotal Payments and the integration of SafeCharge. The company now employs over 2,400 professionals across 32 nationalities, headquartered in Montreal, Quebec. Nuvei's platform goes beyond simple payment acceptance - it encompasses pay-ins, payouts, global acquiring, bank transfers, real-time payments, fraud and risk management, currency management, reconciliation, card issuing, banking services, and crypto/digital asset support. This end-to-end approach helps businesses accelerate revenue, reduce operational costs, and expand into new markets without the complexity of managing multiple payment providers.
