 Press Releases

  • Global fintech Unlimint, media village sponsor of Web Summit in 2021, announced its plan to launch its own eCommerce platform for businessmen looking to increase their global digital presence and expand the company’s clientele to SMEs by end of 2022.

    This announcement opens a new chapter in the company’s business development strategy, appeals to its mission “to be ready for tomorrow” and happens at a time when the eCommerce industry is experiencing a huge growth spurt.

    With the share of global eCommerce sales expected to reach a whopping 21.8% in 2024 and regions like Latin America and APAC seeing incredible double-digit eCommerce growth in these past 2 years, the industry is at its all-time high and will continue developing at record speed.

    “The world has changed. While European merchants have easy access to any type of solution they need, merchants in developing countries still require high-quality tools for their businesses. That’s why we have set ourselves on a mission – make eCommerce affordable and available for merchants worldwide and allow them to earn an unlimited amount of money, selling their goods online, without marketplaces and other middlemen.”, commented Alex Antonov, Unlimint’s Chief Product Officer. “We believe in a free market and are certain that the Internet still has space for new sellers, as the availability of choice and competition at the end of the day makes the end customer happier. To make our mission a reality, we are creating a product that will allow anyone to open their own online business, without big budgets and programming skills. Our product will be self-sufficient, comfortable, reliable, and honest, one that we would want to use ourselves and would recommend to our friends and partners.”, he added.

    “According to our observations, eCommerce platforms that currently exist in developed countries offer an entry threshold that is quite high for merchants in developing countries, while marketplaces are either unavailable or provide conditions that limit the business’s expansion. By “entry threshold”, we mean the requirement to pay a certain fee for a service subscription, before the business actually starts earning money and bringing in profit, as well as difficulties with connecting other external payment providers, due to a usually limited geographical span and portfolio of payments methods.” Noted, Unlimint’s CEO, Kirill Evstratov. “We are entering a highly competitive market that has several strong players. Nevertheless, we are certain that our product has a clear target audience, as we are focusing it on developing markets, where current industry leaders are still not dominating because their services aren’t always customized for the local audience’s needs. We are ready to offer a pricing model, that will make our product more interesting to that audience. We are ready to offer more profitable options of cooperation than our competitors. On top of that our product will include all the functions needed to start doing business online. It will be a one-stop-shop solution that eliminates any other additional external products.”

    The official launch of the platform is scheduled in the second half of 2022.

  • London, June 2021 – Unlimint and Discover signed a strategic agreement that increases the global acceptance footprint for Discover Global Network and furthers Unlimint’s goal to help businesses worldwide be “ready for tomorrow”.

    This alliance enhances Unlimint’s strategy to expand the number of payment options available to their clients worldwide and provides more choices to consumers on how they want to pay. The agreement will benefit Unlimint customers by increasing the number of payment options available and provide them the ability to accept payment from Discover Global Network Cardholders from around the world.  Discover Global Network Cardholders, on the other hand, will have the opportunity to shop with an array of online international merchants across 3 continents – Europe, Asia and Africa. 

    With various reports highlighting the fact that consumers’ digital-centric shopping behavior will continue in 2021 and beyond, being on top of the payment methods game and being able to offer customers their preferred payment option is crucial for businesses that are trying to survive in the new reality of things. Retail ecommerce sales surged to 27.6% worldwide in 2020 and are projected to grow 14.3% this year, as buyers and sellers now prefer digital options over face-to-face due to both safety, speed & convenience.

     “As the fastest growing global payments network1, Discover is a major player in the payments world. With 60% of shoppers apprehensive to go back to stores due to new spikes in Covid-19, allowing our clients to provide Discover Global Network cards as a payment option is a must if we intend on supporting them in their journey to global expansion and growth,” said Kirill Evstratov, CEO at Unlimint. “This is especially an important step for our clients in Asia and South America, as those are the leading regions with the most share of customers that shopped online in 2020. We pride ourselves in taking our mission to offer global availability very seriously and always look to expand our payment methods portfolio, so that merchants can offer localized options for selling to their customers.”

    “By working with Discover, we enrich our cooperation with international payment schemes and are better positioned to serve our customers – offering them a more comprehensive payment solution under one roof for international payments and allowing them to serve a broader range of customers,” added Robert Ang, Unlimint’s General Manager for APAC. “Our strong digital focused customer base will also allow Discover to extend their product offering globally”.

    “The partnership between Unlimint and Discover will expand our digital acceptance footprint in Asia Pacific and globally, opening new avenues for us to collaborate and honour consumer choice, It will also drive greater benefits to merchants by offering our cardholders across the world more options in how and where they pay online and in-app,” said Jonathon Gould, Regional Managing Director, Global Acceptance, Asia Pacific at Discover. “As more merchants embrace e-commerce in their growth strategy and further pivot to digital amidst the global pandemic, we are committed to working with our acquiring partners to expand our payment acceptance, both in person and online.”

    Discover Global Network has over 50 million merchant acceptance locations and two million ATM and cash access locations across more than 200 countries and territories. Discover Global Network includes Discover Network, Diners Club International, PULSE and more than 20 alliance partner networks across the globe.
