Frequently asked questions
Who runs Allied Wallet and makes strategic decisions?
Andy Khawaja is the founder and CEO of Allied Wallet, as stated on the company's website. He has led the firm since its launch in 2006 and is credited with maintaining its corporate culture and product direction. No other C-suite or investment-committee members are publicly named in the firm's own materials.
Is Allied Wallet a family office or an operating payments company?
Allied Wallet operates as a payments company, not a family office. It provides merchant acquiring, payment gateway services, and fraud-prevention tools to e-commerce businesses. There is no public disclosure of proprietary investing, fund commitments, or wealth-management mandates typically associated with single or multi-family offices.
What distinguishes Allied Wallet's payment offering from competitors?
The firm emphasizes flat-rate, transparent pricing — 1% plus 10¢ for European transactions and 1.95% plus 10¢ for international transactions — alongside SHA-256 encryption and PCI DSS Level 1 compliance. It also accepts over 100 alternative payment methods, which it says is well above the industry average, to improve checkout conversion for merchants selling cross-border.
Where does Allied Wallet have operational offices?
In addition to its original US presence, the firm lists support offices in Frankfurt (Germany), Macau, Tokyo (Japan), and Mohali (India). The Macau office is located at 371 Avenida da Praia Grande, the Tokyo office at Otemachi First Square, and the India office at IT Park in Sector 67, Mohali.
Does Allied Wallet disclose any investment portfolio or asset-management activity?
No. Allied Wallet's public materials describe only its payment-processing services — merchant accounts, APIs, hosted payment pages, and subscription billing. There is no mention of direct venture investments, fund commitments, or any deployment of a proprietary balance sheet beyond operating the payments business.
