Apart from sale, Net Element will also consider options like technology licensing, spin-offs as well as mergers.
The firm did not offer a timeline and stressed that the result of the review is still uncertain.
It refrained from divulging any more details on the matter unless the board green lights a specific course of action.
Net Element executive chairman Oleg Firer said: “Net Element has optimised operations company-wide and implemented efficiencies, achieving cost savings. At the same time, it appears that the public markets do not appropriately recognise the value of our business.
