The strategic round was co-led by North Island Ventures and Blockchain.com Ventures.
"There’s so much more we want to offer our clients, and many untapped regions we’d like to be in to help those markets grow via reliable payments and market infrastructure. This funding round comes at a very exciting time for BCB Group and will be transformative for our client experience."
The seed round was backed by participants including Alan Howard, FinTech Collective, and NYDIG.
"Raising £11 million and reaching a post-money valuation of £51 million is a testament to the scale of Bottlepay’s ambition, and an illustration of the effort and resources invested to build and design a revolutionary payments infrastructure of this magnitude."
Anthemis led the seed round to support product development and customer acquisition at Ember.
"Ember is at a crucial point in our growth as a software and a company. Having achieved proof of concept and organic customer growth since our pre-seed round, we’re now ready to bring on customers at scale and expand the progressive functionalities of the platform."
