About the company
Holyo is a Germany-based fintech focussed on commerce with digital vouchers. We unlock a multi-billion dollar industry for tens of thousands of resellers by making vouchers of international brands available in emerging markets and by removing barriers of entry.
We are on a mission to financially and technically enable resellers and their millions of points of sale in emerging markets to participate in the growth of the digital economy and allow all consumers to participate therein.
About the Product
Vouchers are the digital version of a gift card, also known as keys, pins, codes or gift tokens. They can be used as an alternative source for money at a particular store (physical or online) for purchases related to goods or services. Given their digital nature and unique economics, vouchers are also ideal as a cheaper and faster alternative to remittance transfers.

Hello my friend, have you been stranded on the German edition of Startbase? At least your browser tells us, that you do not speak German - so maybe you would like to switch to the English edition instead?
