For millions starting life in a new country, trust is everything. New immigrants need to rely on the systems that move money, enable relocation, and protect personal data. Dallas-headquartered migration fintech -Vesti with Nigerian and Ghana offices, builds financial services for global citizens, understands this deeply. From the beginning, the company has focused on creating infrastructure that is dependable, secure, and globally scalable.
That commitment to trust and security has now reached a significant milestone. Vesti has achieved the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certification, becoming the first migration-focused fintech in the region to meet this internationally recognised benchmark for payment security and data protection. As digital financial services continue to expand worldwide, the need for strong, compliant infrastructure has never been more urgent. The PCI DSS framework, developed by global card networks including Visa, Mastercard, and American Express, sets the highest standards for protecting cardholder data. Vesti’s certification confirms that its systems, policies, and controls meet these stringent requirements, solidifying the company’s position as a trusted platform for secure cross-border financial services.
Vesti offers legal and financial services to individuals relocating across borders. Through the mobile platform, users can access migration financing, foreign exchange, USD virtual cards, and international payments. Driven by a mission to make migration seamless, secure, and financially inclusive, Vesti now serves over 400,000 users in 9 countries and its mobile apps have been downloaded over 1million times.
“Data security and compliance are foundational to the trust we build with users and partners,” said Olusola Amusan, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Vesti. “Attaining PCI DSS certification is a significant step forward and signals to the ecosystem that we operate at the highest international standards.”
For many of Vesti’s users, including students, skilled professionals, and families managing long-term relocation, financial services are more than just products; they are essential tools for progress and stability. As the first fintech in this category to achieve PCI DSS certification, Vesti continues to set the standard for secure, compliant, and borderless financial access.
“This certification reflects the depth of governance and internal controls established across our operations,” said Adedamola Oni, Chief Compliance Officer and Corporate Affairs Lead at Vesti. “It strengthens regulatory standing, builds enterprise trust, and reinforces our commitment to protecting user data across every market we serve.”
With PCI DSS certification now in place, Vesti is well positioned to deepen integrations with global services partners, payment partners and scale its infrastructure as the business expands its footprint in key markets.
