Humans Awarded Best Fintech in Uzbekistan by Visa
Humans has received an award for its active implementation of banking products in Uzbekistan. The company surpassed all its competitors in terms of the rate at which it issued Visa cards and the volume of transactions made therewith. Visa had previously already recognised Humans as a card issuing leader in the region.
Tashkent, Uzbekistan–(Newsfile Corp. – December 19, 2022) – Humans received the award for Best Fintech 2022 from Visa, the global digital payment industry leader. Every year, the international company presents awards to banks and fintech organisations that issue bank cards jointly with Visa. When selecting the winner in this category, Visa took into account the rate at which its bank cards are issued and the volume of transactions that are made using them in the region. According to the 2022 results, Humans has become the leader in this field in Uzbekistan. Humans VISA cards provide citizens of Uzbekistan with access to offline and online products anywhere in the world, and they are also increasing the volume of online payments that are made in the region.
“The proportion of non-cash payments that are being made in Uzbekistan is increasing, and we are doing our utmost to make the process of transitioning to new digital tools in the country as seamless as possible. Thanks to Humans, approximately one million citizens of Uzbekistan have already got access to Visa products, but we’re not planning on stopping there. The Best Fintech award is another reminder that we’re on the right path and that we’re dealing well with the goals that we set ourselves at the very start: giving citizens of Uzbekistan access to modern digital technologies. User-friendly banking products make life easier. They open up new possibilities, promote financial literacy, and give people mobility – with Humans VISA cards, our users have access to any product or service from anywhere in the world.” – Vlad Dobrynin, founder of the Humans Group.
According to data from Visa, the volume of electronic payments being made in Uzbekistan is steadily growing. In just the fourth quarter of 2021, they increased by a third. Humans VISA cards first started to be issued in August 2020 in partnership with Ravnaq-bank. Customers had access both to the virtual version and to the card in physical form. The virtual card can be acquired in the Humans app automatically when you connect a Humans SIM card. Customers can order a plastic card free of charge on the website and have it delivered to their home, or they can obtain one at a point of sale – Humans has already opened more than 1,100 service points in Uzbekistan. Humans VISA cards are accepted both in Uzbekistan and abroad.
“The collaboration between Humans and Visa in Uzbekistan has become something of a catalyst for the development of fintech in the country. More than two million people are already using Humans services, and that figure is continuing to rise. We have only been able to achieve that result thanks to our in-depth product expertise and understanding of the needs of our target audience. Humans has been working in Uzbekistan’s market for more than two years, constantly refining our products in order to make them even more accessible and user-friendly. Our team’s experience and knowledge has allowed us to quickly and effectively implement Visa payment technologies in Uzbekistan. And, as the collaboration with Humans demonstrates, developers are enjoying even greater demand from their customers.” – Evgeniy Lesnyak, senior director of strategic partnerships and fintech in Ukraine, CIS countries, and Southeast Europe.
The payment system previously presented Humans with its Outstanding Growth in Issuing award, according to the 2021 results. In 2022, however, Humans surpassed all other banks and fintech companies in Uzbekistan according to the rate at which Visa cards are issued and the volume of transactions carried out therewith.
HUMANS.uz is a superapp that combines a fintech service, cellular services, and an online payment system with a cashback function. The group’s offices are located in the USA, Uzbekistan, Belarus, Poland, Singapore, and Germany. As of May 2022, the number of active users of Humans’ services amounted to 2 million people.

UNICC and ShelterZoom Developed a Secure Document Tracking and E-Signature Solution for the UN System
The United Nations International Computing Center (UNICC) and ShelterZoom are pleased to announce a new innovative blockchain-based solution for controlling and protecting the digital data of UN entities and other international organizations. As the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, UNICC has partnered with ShelterZoom, a leading data and content protection and ownership SaaS company behind innovations such as Document Token® technology and Document GPS®.
Building upon the 50 years of experienced innovation from the UNICC, the two organizations collaborated on a transformational undertaking offering robust protection and promising increased productivity for document tracking and management. ShelterZoom will contribute its proprietary document tokenization technology, along with its data protection, document tracking and e-signature solutions to deliver a white-labeled platform, giving member organizations a greater level of governance over their content. Using ShelterZoom’s flagship proprietary Single Source Of Truth® technology, the solution provides a means for each file to be protected individually without changing user normal habits instead of having to rely solely on protecting files at the database level. This ‘singularity and control’ is a new era in cybersecurity and document management, which has never been seen before at this level of seamless integration with existing tools.
“The synergy between what we deliver and the goals of the United Nations are a perfect match for Single Source Of Truth,” said Chao Cheng-Shorland, CEO and Cofounder of ShelterZoom. “We have said from the beginning that it is time to think about cybersecurity in a completely new way and in doing so we have created a solution to address other operational pain points while simultaneously solving one of the biggest challenges facing the global population today. The UN is at the frontlines of changing the world for the better and its forward-thinking approach to using technology to address fundamental issues is critical in improving livelihoods for all.”
ShelterZoom solutions have already been in use across dozens of industries and with this new commercial partnership, they can now extend their usefulness to the UN family and other international organizations. The revolutionary method for complete document tracking with built-in productivity tools, such as digital signatures and a market-first method for organizing files inside email, is an all-in-one solution built for a global workforce. The Single Source of Truth model has the added benefit of decreasing the carbon footprint created by excessive digital waste, further supporting the sustainability goals of the United Nations.
“The need for robust cybersecurity and data protection has never been greater,” said Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC. “By working together with ShelterZoom, we have developed a cutting-edge tool tailored to the needs of the UN family. Our unwavering commitment to providing best-in-class solutions ensures we continue to support the digital transformation and modernization of the UN system and other international organizations.”
