About Varexis

Built by payments professionals. For forex professionals.

Founded in London in 2017, Varexis was created by a team who had spent years inside forex brokerages — and knew exactly what the payment infrastructure was missing.

Our Story

We built what we wished existed.

The founders of Varexis spent the better part of a decade working inside regulated forex brokerages — managing payment operations, fighting chargebacks, navigating compliance requirements, and dealing with generic payment providers who didn't understand the industry.

In 2017, they decided to build the infrastructure they had always needed: a payment platform designed from the ground up for the specific demands of forex — fast settlement, multi-currency operations, chargeback resilience, and compliance-first architecture.

Today, Varexis serves 150+ broker partners across 180+ countries, processing billions in monthly payment volume. The mission hasn't changed: give forex brokers the payment infrastructure they deserve.

How We Operate

Three principles. No exceptions.

01

Precision over promises

We say what we can deliver and deliver what we say. No overpromising, no vague SLAs.

02

Compliance as a feature

Regulatory compliance isn't a constraint we work around — it's infrastructure we build in from day one.

03

Partnership, not vendor

We succeed when our broker partners succeed. Every decision is made with that alignment in mind.

Leadership

Industry veterans. Not generalists.
