It is now poised for even more new creations which will help it to remain at the forefront of emerging developments within the ever-evolving FinTech space. Such new innovations would be impossible without a dedicated team of expert staff all driven towards creating real change within the global FinTech market. RBK.money is proud to boast a dedicated team of up to 100 payment market professionals including developers, sales staff, financiers, customer care experts and more. All of them are experts in their field and able to drive the company to success through their skills and ingenuity. S Seeking to remain ahead of these developments RBK.money is transforming into the global digital bank.

RBK.money believes that the digital future has arrived and that the corporate landscape is now facing major digital transformation now.
