Egyptian Fintech Zeal Raises $10 Million Series A for Global Expansion
Summary
Zeal raised $10 million in Series A funding to expand its SmartPOS Plugin beyond Egypt. The company builds payment technology that helps physical retailers identify shoppers and use transaction data to segment and reconnect with them after purchase. Its software works with existing payment terminals, so merchants can add customer intelligence without replacing current hardware. Zeal already has partnerships with companies such as Ingenico and Network International, which should help it reach more terminals and merchants across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa.
