About Us

Nexpora was founded on a simple belief: that any business should be able to operate globally without the complexity of traditional finance. Established by seasoned payment experts Richard Zehnal and Tom Ericsson, who previously launched Payius AB (acquired by US Bank/Elavon), Nexpora collaborates with leading financial institutions worldwide. Recently, Trill Invest—owner of key strategic partner Educatius Group—became a shareholder, deepening our commitment to providing tailored solutions for clients in Europe, North America, and beyond.

Our Mission

Traditional financial systems were not built for the speed and complexity of modern digital business, especially for specialized industries like education, events, and escrow services. We saw businesses struggling with disconnected tools for payments, FX, and compliance, losing time and money in the process.

Our mission is to provide a single, intelligent platform that removes this complexity. By combining our roles as a Merchant of Record, a treasury management system, and a tokenization engine, we provide the programmable infrastructure that allows our customers to automate their operations and scale globally with confidence.
