MANSA recognised in The Payments Power 50 2026

London, June 2nd, 2026: MANSA, the liquidity infrastructure provider enabling instant cross-border payment settlement through stablecoin technology, has been recognised in The Payments Power 50 2026, the annual list from The Power 50 celebrating the companies and industry voices making their mark across the global payments industry.

Now in its second year, The Payments Power 50 recognises 40 companies and 10 industry influencers making a meaningful contribution to one of the most competitive areas of financial services.

The 2026 list comes at an important moment for payments. Merchants are looking to improve approval rates and customer experience, providers are balancing fraud, resilience and regulation, and banks and fintechs are exploring new ways to support open banking, cross border payments, digital wallets, embedded finance and settlement.

MANSA has been recognised for its work in cross-border payments and liquidity infrastructure, including delivering real-time settlement for licensed payment operators across Africa, Latin America, MENA, and Southeast Asia.

Mouloukou Sanoh, CEO and Co-Founder of MANSA, said: “Being recognised in The Payments Power 50 2026 is a proud moment for our team. Cross-border payments have been held back by slow settlement, pre-funding requirements, and fragmented liquidity for too long. MANSA exists to solve that — providing instant, on-chain liquidity so payment operators can move money reliably across corridors without locking up capital. As we continue to scale across new markets, our focus remains on building the infrastructure layer that makes global payments work the way they should.” Jason Williams, CEO of The Power 50, said: “Payments has always attracted ambition, but the industry is now being judged on delivery. The companies featured in The Payments Power 50 2026 are helping to make money move more safely, quickly and reliably, while supporting the services and infrastructure that modern commerce depends on.

“We’re proud to recognise MANSA as part of this year’s cohort. The Payments Power 50 is designed to celebrate the companies and individuals driving the industry forward, bring the payments community together and give those shaping the sector a platform throughout the year. Congratulations to MANSA and everyone included in The Payments Power 50 2026.”
