Prateek Mundae — CEO
I've spent 13 years in and around payments and financial services, and the thing that's kept me here is that it's genuinely hard. The infrastructure is complex, the regulation is unforgiving, and the stakes are high. And right now, it's being rewritten in real time. Blockchain-native settlement, instant cross-border payments, real-time rails replacing legacy batch systems, global cards reaching markets that never had them. The payments landscape is shifting faster than at any point in the last two decades. Getting ahead of that curve, not just reacting to it, is what drives me. My career has moved fast. I started as an engineer at TCS, founded my own technology studio, then spent the better part of a decade moving through increasingly senior product and strategy roles across Australian fintechs, mutual banks, and global platforms. I'm now at Revolut leading payments strategy for new market launches globally - owning how we enter new geographies across both Account-to-Account and Card rails. Along the way I've launched a digital bank, built payment schemes from scratch, unlocked eight figures in capital through settlement redesign, led programs worth $20M+, and built teams across three continents. The common thread has been a bias toward commercial outcomes over activity - and a preference for building things that last. I'm currently thinking a lot about how AI reshapes payments infrastructure and financial product design - not the hype, but the practical application. If that's your world too, I'd love to connect.
