Our Story

The year 2010...
Our company begins
Finseta started out life in 2010 as PlutusFX LTD, which would later become FXPress, CornerstoneFS and then Finseta Payment Solutions.

Over time the key people in the business believed that there had to be a better, more efficient way to handle financial foreign exchange transactions. They therefore started the process of building in house a new technology platform for foreign exchange payments.
