The financial service industry has been revolutionized in the past decade as technological solutions take pole position in its ecosystem. However, this ecosystem presents harsh realities for many new players. According to DemandSage, 30-40% of startups fail, and investors lose their capital. Nevertheless, fueled by its funding, Keeta seeks to focus on new areas of market concentration, such as empowering customers with cheaper costs of transactions. Payments on the platform will be over 50-70% cheaper than the cost of traditional banks.

This investment significantly boosts Keeta as it fuels its resilient desire to improve entrepreneurial activities as its offerings target financial institutions and fintechs. The long-term goal for Keeta is to improve the digital financial industry and ultimately rise above big players like PayPal’s Venmo.
