Describe the company – the elevator pitch …
deVere Vault is a global e-money app, designed by expats for expats, internationally-mobile individuals and firms. It is the first step into the fintech sector by deVere Group, one of the world’s largest independent financial advisory organisations.
You will be able to open a deVere Vault account in five minutes, withdraw money from any cash machine worldwide, get real-time notifications with all your transactions, spend money on the card wherever Mastercard is accepted, and send and receive money in most major currencies instantly with other deVere Vault account holders.

How are you different?
After more than 15 years dominating the international financial advisory space, we know probably better than anyone else what expats and globally focused organisations want and need in terms of financial solutions. The e-money app has been created for today’s globalised world in response to growing demand for an app of this nature.
Why will the company / product do well?
It will do well because the market is crying out for an app like this; an app designed for the 21st century. It’s convenient, secure and people no longer have the time or inclination to go to a branch of their bank. We’re increasingly accustomed to doing everything on the go from our smart phones and/or tablets.
