The people building Monetty

Michael is the Founder & CEO of Monetty, a fintech platform focused on making cross-border money movement faster, clearer, and more accessible—especially across emerging markets.

With over a decade of experience in fintech and software engineering, he has built and operated payment infrastructure, digital banking systems, and compliance-driven platforms across multiple jurisdictions. His work spans cross-border payments, neo-banking, and regulated financial systems, giving him a deep understanding of both the technical and regulatory layers required to move money globally.

Before founding Monetty, Michael contributed to the development and scaling of financial products at companies including BairesDev, Repay, Arivo Acceptance, MyBambu, and Klever, working across international payment flows and financial integrations.

He founded Monetty to address a clear gap: cross-border transfers are still too slow, too expensive, and too opaque—particularly in high-growth corridors. His focus is on building infrastructure that delivers real-time settlement, transparent pricing, and reliable access to global financial services.

Marcus Gabriel has spent the past 20 years leading, designing, building, and scaling complex systems, including AI-driven solutions and financial platforms.
