John Kinghorn has joined payments firm Peratera as Commercial Director after nearly three years at IFX Payments, where he held the position of Partnerships Director. The veteran brings over two decades of experience in partnerships and business development across the payments sector to his new role.
Kinghorn’s appointment comes as brokers and financial services firms face mounting challenges in securing stable banking infrastructure. He emphasized that reliable multi-currency access and payment capabilities across jurisdictions remain critical operational requirements. Prior to IFX Payments, Kinghorn spent time at BVNK and Equals Money in senior partnership roles. His most extensive tenure was nearly fourteen years at moneycorp, where he rose through the ranks to Head of UK Partnerships.
The move signals Peratera’s push to strengthen its commercial capabilities amid ongoing banking access challenges facing the forex and fintech industries. Kinghorn’s deep network and experience in alternative payment solutions position him to address critical infrastructure gaps.
