VelaFi raises a $20M Series B to expand stablecoin-powered payment infrastructure across Latin America, the U.S., and Asia—building a faster, compliant settlement layer for global businesses.
Founded in 2020, VelaFi has deep roots in Latin America and a proven track record in real-world payment infrastructure, serving enterprises across complex and underserved markets. The company has since expanded its coverage to the United States and Asia, enabling businesses to access a unified platform that connects local banking rails, global transfer networks, and major stablecoin protocols. By addressing critical enterprise pain points — such as settlement delays, liquidity inefficiencies, and fragmented financial systems — VelaFi enables fast, compliant, and cost-efficient global financial flows.

VelaFi’s platform provides enterprise-grade financial infrastructure, including on/off ramps, pay-ins and pay-outs, cross-border payments, and support for multi-currency operations, FX workflows, and secure asset management accessible directly through its platform or via API integrations. To date, VelaFi has supported hundreds of enterprise clients and processed billions of dollars in payment volume, with demand accelerating across its global corridors.
“We are building the next generation of global payment infrastructure, one that is instant, transparent, and regulatory-first,” said Maggie Wu, CEO and Co-Founder of VelaFi. “This investment accelerates our global expansion from Latin America into the United States and Asia. These three regions collectively anchor a significant share of the world’s trade flows, capital movement, and enterprise activity. By strengthening our licensing footprint and deepening our connectivity across these critical economic corridors, we aim to build the unified settlement layer that modern global businesses urgently need but that traditional financial infrastructure has not been able to provide.”

Global payment flows exceed US$150 trillion annually, while stablecoins now support an estimated US$25–30 trillion in annual settlement volume across cross-border enterprises, global e-commerce, trade networks, and institutional financial flows. As global finance shifts toward faster, more transparent, and more interoperable systems, VelaFi aims to power this transformation by delivering compliant, scalable, and enterprise-grade stablecoin infrastructure that supports the future of global business.
