Our competitive advantage is our Ambition and Speed

There are a lot of payments companies out there, but it is not yet solved for emerging markets in the global south. Incumbent solutions remain expensive and unreliable. We execute to exceed customer expectations to out-manoever our competition.

Our Values

</aside>

🔥 Customers First, Always

We build NALA for our customers and not anyone else. This means whether you are in Sales, Marketing, Engineering or Finance, everyone needs to understand who our customers are, what problems we are solving and how we are competitive in the market.

🥇 Here to Win

This is a competitive space and so we understand that the stakes are high. The prize is a huge, both in terms of monetary gain and personal achievement. Everyone at NALA comes into the company knowing what we are competing for.

🚄 Speed Wins

Execution is the only defence. We prioritise doing and iterating over agonising and waiting for “perfect”. When we ship new products and features, we learn about how this helps our customers which informs the second iteration.

🧠 Understand Why

We ask why until we know the fundamental truth and insight that drives decision making. Through speaking to customers and deeply understanding our work, we are able to deliver game changing solutions for our customers.

The NALA App

The NALA App is our flagship product that allows migrants from the US, UK and 19 European countries to send money to Africa and Asia. Read more about the opportunity we see here.
