Yuno, the global payment orchestration platform, has announced significant expansion within the Asia-Pacific region with the opening of regional headquarters in Singapore and new operations in China. The dual-office setup strengthens the company's mission to simplify global payments and empower merchants to scale across borders with confidence. This strategic move positions Yuno to better serve the fast-evolving payment needs of the APAC market.
The announcement follows Yuno's earlier entries into the Middle East and United Kingdom earlier this year, when the company launched regional headquarters in Qatar and European headquarters in London. This pattern of global expansion demonstrates Yuno's systematic approach to establishing regional presence across key international markets. The company's growth trajectory reflects the increasing demand for sophisticated payment solutions in emerging digital economies.
Founded by Juan Pablo Ortega and Julián Núñez, the entrepreneurial minds behind Latin American tech giant Rappi, Yuno was built by merchants for merchants. The founders launched the platform after navigating the complexities of global payments firsthand, aiming to address the growing need for a seamless, secure and scalable payment solution that adapts to different markets. Their merchant-focused approach has been central to Yuno's product development strategy.
With its new operations in China, Yuno is enabling Chinese merchants to participate in the global digital economy through a single API integration that connects to more than 1,000 payment methods and over 450 providers across 195 countries. The platform offers built-in compliance with standards including PCI DSS and GDPR, smart routing to increase approval rates and reduce costs, and real-time payment insights. Additionally, Yuno is announcing the regional availability of NOVA, the company's first-of-its-kind suite of agentic AI solutions designed to transform payment friction into growth opportunities for merchants.
