Esca is a Web 2.5 infrastructure company for global finance, helping businesses move, manage and protect money across fiat and digital asset rails.
Built for companies operating in and out of emerging markets, Esca combines cross-border payments, stablecoin on/off ramps, named multi-currency accounts, automated currency conversion, FX hedging, mass payouts and API connectivity into one platform. Our infrastructure helps enterprises, payroll platforms, fintechs, Web3 companies, financial institutions and global businesses access African liquidity, settle faster, reduce FX friction and operate across borders without needing local entities in every market.
Esca supports payments and collections across 120+ countries, with named company accounts in USD, GBP, EUR and key African currencies. Our platform enables businesses to move between local currencies, G3 currencies and stablecoins like USDC and USDT, helping them protect revenue from currency volatility and simplify settlement across complex markets.
Esca’s core advantage is its ability to bridge illiquid and liquid markets. We provide automated on/off ramp access for businesses in markets like Nigeria, same-day settlement for local illiquid currencies, and technology-led currency management that reduces reliance on middlemen and manual OTC processes.
Best for: Global businesses, PSPs, HR and payroll platforms, crypto/Web3 companies, financial institutions, investors and enterprises expanding into or operating across Africa.
