London, United Kingdom - September 3, 2026 - Paycode is pleased to announce that Colin Digby, a seasoned industry veteran in global payments and FX, has joined the company as Chief Revenue Officer.
Colin brings extensive leadership experience from Mastercard, Crown Agents Bank, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan and Citibank. He will lead Paycode’s global revenue strategy and expand partnerships with banks, governments and development organisations.
Paycode’s leadingâedge payments and digital identity technology is already delivering secure, offlineâcapable solutions in some of the world’s most challenging markets — including Afghanistan, the DRC, Ethiopia, Ghana, Sudan, Syria and Zambia.
Gabriel Ruhan, CEO, said: “Colin’s track record speaks for itself. He knows how to build commercial momentum in tough markets, and he’ll help accelerate Paycode’s mission to deliver worldâclass payments infrastructure where it’s needed most.”
"Having spent my career connecting hard-to-reach markets to the global financial system, joining Paycode felt like a natural next step. This is a business with real technology solving real problems, bringing identity and access to people who have been locked out of the formal economy for too long. I’m really looking forward to working with the world-class Paycode team and our partners to build on the momentum and open up new markets around the world." ~ Colin Digby, Chief Revenue Officer, Paycode
