Xace, a Malta-registered and regulated company, has appointed Megan Easey as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

Xace is an alternative banking provider specialising in financial solutions for the iGaming, fintech and high-growth digital sectors.

Ms Easey has worked in leadership roles across iGaming, fintech, and banking for the past 20 years, brining “a rare mix of operational rigour, strategic vision and high-growth execution” to the company.”

Her recent appointment comes as Xace enters a new phase, expanding within Europe and speeding up product development for regulated and high-risk industries.

Ms Easey is also a well-known keynote speaker and regular voice on industry panels, bringing both experience and influence to the role. Her leadership is hands-on, collaborative, and purpose-driven – qualities that “align perfectly with Xace’s mission to remove banking barriers for businesses operating against the odds.”

In the past, Ms Easey worked in both startup and scale-up environments, with a strong track record of delivering results in complex, regulated markets. She is recognised for turning ambitious goals into real-world outcomes, whether by streamlining operations, leading international growth or strengthening compliance frameworks.

“As someone who loves tackling operational complexity and scaling bold businesses, Xace feels like home,” said Ms Easey.

“It’s a brand with an incredible foundation, a clear purpose, and massive potential. I’m excited to work with the team to elevate our product, deepen client trust, and push the boundaries of what’s possible in alternative banking,” she continued.

David Hodkinson, Co-Founder of Xace, noted: “Megan is the perfect fit for Xace.”

He concluded: “She’s a proven operator with deep domain expertise and a reputation for building high-performance teams that thrive in complexity. Her energy, clarity, and bias for action are exactly what we need as we enter our next stage of growth.”
