Wole Ayodele

Wole Ayodele is the co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Fincra, the payment-infrastructure company he established with Gideon Orovwiroro to address gaps in the movement of money across African markets. Before Fincra, Ayodele was a co-founder of Quidax, where his work across product, business, treasury and customer success exposed him to the difficulties businesses and individuals encountered when using existing financial infrastructure for cross-border transactions. He has said that observing users rely on cryptocurrency to move money internationally helped lead to the creation of Fincra.
At Fincra, Ayodele has led the development and expansion of infrastructure designed to enable businesses, fintechs and financial institutions to collect payments, make payouts and move funds across African markets.
