PAYALA

The design of Payala was concieved by Emerson Tan in response to the experience gained over the course of over seventeen years of working in humanitarian aid. During the West African Ebola epidemic payments came to the fore as a problem and Emerson was tasked to come up with solutions to enable electronic payments in less than eight weeks. A mobile phone based solution was found, while it worked, it wasn't ideal, not to mention expensive to run, and unsustainable... PAYALA is a patented, cryptographically secure digital payment technology built by cyber security and financial experts that represents a revolution in operational resilience... A team of financial, technology, health care and disaster relief experts passionate about designing and developing future forward and resilient infrastructures with breakthrough cross-ecosystem business models that enable universal access to, and participation in the world's economy.
