The core trends are clear:

  1. Growth, not profits, is the primary value lever.
  2. But if you can profitably grow, that’s a super premium.
  3. Industry drivers matter. Those operating in traditional remittances are mostly at the lower end (a slow growth sector), digital payments is in the middle and ecommerce payment providers are largely near the top.
  4. Recency of public debut plays a role. Half of the top eight listed on the public markets in the past year, often using each other as comps.
