    This acquisition strengthens Aleph's leadership in connecting digital advertising with streamlined payment solutions across various industries, including streaming, digital media, gig economies, online retail, SaaS, hospitality, travel, financial services, and entertainment. Key figures highlight Aleph's and Localpayment combined impact: $3+ billion Total Payment Volume (TPV), 60+ top-tier platforms and 26,000+ advertisers, a single API with 640+ payment methods, support for 70+ currencies and presence in 130+ countries.

    Unmatched Advantage: Payments + Media Integration

    Aleph's acquisition of Localpayment accelerates the redefinition of how businesses in industries such as streaming, e-commerce and digital media, can operate by offering an integrated approach to payments and media. By enabling clients to manage their payment flows while leveraging digital media, this deal creates significant cost efficiencies and operational savings. Businesses can now optimize their payment processing and digital advertising or inventory in a single streamlined process.

    Gaston Taratuta, CEO of Aleph, said: "For nearly two decades, we have focused on bridging the gap between leading ad-tech platforms and advertisers in emerging economies, creating an ecosystem where advertisers meet consumers. Now, we are taking a natural next step by integrating payment processing capabilities. This marks a significant evolution for Aleph, reflecting our belief in the ongoing shift from offline GDP to digital GDP, and driving even greater value creation for our partners and clients. We're starting in Latin America and plan to roll out operations both organically and via acquisitions in Africa, the Middle East and Asia, where we already have a strong local presence."

    Ezequiel Israel, CEO of Localpayment stated: "We're thrilled to be part of Aleph's journey and mission. This deal accelerates our growth and gives us direct access to the global digital platforms, brands and online retailers that Aleph has long been associated with and provides them with a compelling combined offer."

    Localpayment by Aleph will be exhibiting at the leading fintech show Money 20/20 in Las Vegas from October 27-30, 2024.
