Qenta Buying Pipit Global For Launching Universal Payments

The deal signals that traditional payment gatekeepers are losing ground to startups bold enough to tackle the infrastructure problem that has plagued international commerce for decades. If Qenta can deliver on that promise, it could reshape how millions of businesses move money globally—and upend the incumbents who've long profited from the friction.
