Kiaan Pillay is the Co-Founder and CEO of Stitch, a payments infrastructure company that helps businesses seamlessly connect to the financial system.
Kiaan has been successfully leading Stitch towards becoming one of the top influential API fintech companies in Africa. Stitch customers range from wallet-based companies such as Chipper Cash, Luno, and Zapper, to financial services providers such as Franc, ImaliPay, and Sanlam, to subscription and e-commerce players like FlexClub, to payment service providers and aggregators such as Paystack, Peach, and Yoco.
