”We live in a world characterised by financial legacy systems and the continued divestment of traditional financial institutions that are closing more branches. It leaves a void in the market for Saurus.com’s technology and a waiting list of individuals and businesses eager to use our convenient payments solution. As an immigrant myself, we aim to serve mainly rural communities, the Hispanic and Muslim diasporas, socially responsibly,” said Jose.
