The RPi Zero has the same pinout as the RPi1 Model A+, B+, and 2B

Is there any way to add extra USB ports on the Pi Zero? I know that the processor supports more than the single USB port but can any more be added, perhaps by soldering wires directly to pads/test points on the underside of the board?
Thanks.

Just use a USB hub, the standard RPi simply has a USB hub IC built in

Thanks, that is plan B. I’m prototyping an embedded system that connects to an arduino I/O processor via the USB.
The final design will use the SPI interface. I was hoping to be able to build it all into a small case without tying up the existing USB port.
