Airwallex is one of fintech’s most underrated success stories. Four friends running a café in Melbourne got frustrated with expensive cross-border payments… So they built their own system. Not for customers. But for businesses moving money globally. Today, Airwallex powers thousands of brands, moves billions across borders, and is valued at over $5B. All by solving a real problem that banks ignored: Slow, expensive, messy international payments. The lesson? You don’t need a flashy idea. You just need a painful problem worth fixing.
