BVNK appoints Jane McEvoy as VP, Platform Partnerships with an eye on Embedded Payments
“In the last two years, banks and neobank have recognised the importance of multi-currency accounts in retaining and growing their customer base. Stablecoin-enabled wallets are the next generation of multi-currency accounts and we’re already seeing enterprise businesses testing out this functionality. Embedded Payments is really exciting because it means businesses can get the benefits of this technology without the upfront investment or risks – innovating quickly, while relying on BVNK to manage the burden of compliance and maintenance.”
BVNK has announced the appointment of Jane McEvoy as VP of Platform Partnerships of the global payments platform that brings together distributed ledger technology (DLT) and bank payment rails to help businesses send and receive payments.
Jane McEvoy joins BVNK’s global leadership team to build out the firm’s partnerships and bring to market its new Embedded Payments proposition, which allows businesses to use BVNK’s infrastructure to provide own-brand stablecoin and DLT-based services to customers.

Jane McEvoy, VP of Platform Partnerships at BVNK, commented: “I’ve seen lots of innovation in fintech in the last decade, but I’ve also seen the challenges created by legacy financial infrastructure – things like slow settlement and opaque payment processes. Distributed ledger technology and blockchain rails have a lot to offer fintechs here, and we’ll see this tech increasingly being used alongside more traditional networks, as part of a multi-rail payments strategy.”
