Mohamed Seddiki: Bridging Continents Through Fintech Innovation

From Tunisia to Germany and beyond, the visionary founder of MovePayment is reshaping the future of cross-border transfers

Born and raised in Tunisia, Mohamed Seddiki’s entrepreneurial spirit surfaced early. At just 17, in an era when personal computers were still a rarity, he opened his first small business—an internet café. It was more than a venture; it was his initiation into the world of ownership, responsibility, and leadership, marked by his first hire.

Much of Mohamed’s drive can be traced back to his mother, a remarkable woman who raised two sons while juggling multiple jobs and small self-run businesses to provide for her family. From her, he inherited resilience, resourcefulness, and the belief that ambition paired with determination can overcome any obstacle.

At the age of 20, Mohamed moved to Germany to study IT, embarking on a journey that would shape both his career and his entrepreneurial trajectory. He quickly established himself in the professional world, joining Volkswagen and advancing rapidly. Yet his passion for creating solutions pushed him beyond corporate walls. Soon, he was launching companies in education and recruitment, each venture sharpening his business acumen and reinforcing his appetite for innovation.

But fintech was always on the horizon. Since childhood, Mohamed had envisioned transforming the way people send money across borders. That vision is now a reality with MovePayment, his latest and most ambitious venture.

Today, Mohamed and his team are preparing for their next milestone: launching cross-border payments, beginning with Tunisia. For Mohamed, this choice is deeply personal. Having experienced the challenges faced by expats—high remittance fees, slow transfers, and cumbersome intermediaries—he understands firsthand the importance of reliable financial tools for families striving to support their loved ones back home.

“With MovePayment,” Mohamed explains, “we’re not just building a company—we’re building connections that bring people closer.”

Fast, transparent, and cost-effective, MovePayment’s cross-border services aim to give users freedom—the freedom to support family without financial friction, the freedom to trust in technology, and the freedom to see their hard-earned money reach its destination securely.

For Mohamed, this launch marks more than just a business expansion. It is the fulfillment of a lifelong mission: to bridge continents, empower families, and strengthen economic ties. From the small internet café in Tunisia to leading a fintech poised for global impact, his story reflects not just success, but vision, perseverance, and heart.
