About Us

Xalts is a global financial technology and infrastructure company. Xalts is building digital Treasury, Trade & Supply Chain Finance infrastructure to enable seamless flow of data and value between businesses and financial institutions.

Our vision is to drive digitisation in this space to simplify and speed up exchange of data and value. This enables better risk attribution, lower the inefficiencies in the current processes and unlock capital availability.

Our modular infrastructure is designed in a way that parties with different levels of operational complexity can use it easily and implement end-to-end digitisation for their leg of a financial asset transaction.

We are backed by Accel and Citi and have strategic GTM partnerships with global technology providers, institutional consulting firms and blockchains.

We’ve recently acquired Contour (Fintech Platform Xalts to Build 'Plaid for Trade' as It Acquires Contour Network from a Consortium of Global Banks ) to further accelerate our growth.
