Trust & Transparency
We believe money transfers should be clear, affordable, and fair. No hidden fees, no surprises.
Our mission is simple: to move money into and out of Israel faster, easier, and more efficiently. Here's how we got here.
After decades as an international banker, Jeff Balsam saw a growing gap: as banks prioritized efficiency, personal service declined. He launched Adesco Bridge to help individuals and businesses navigate Israeli banking with clarity and care. In 2013, he expanded the vision with Adesco Currency, focused on faster, fairer, and more transparent currency exchange. Meanwhile, Jeff's son, David, was building his fintech career, helping scale Melio into one of the fastest-growing B2B payment platforms in the United States. In 2024, David and Lidan Hifi, a seasoned tech leader from companies like Wix and Tipalti, joined Jeff to lead Adesco into its next chapter. Together, they combine banking expertise with fintech innovation to modernize currency exchange and payments for Israel with unmatched trust, speed, and transparency.
