The investment round was co-led by Apis Partners and Aspirity Partners to support global expansion and product development.
"We are thrilled to partner with Paymentology – a company that operates at the centre of an attractive and fast‑growing segment in the global payments ecosystem – and build on our decade plus relationship with the executive team. Leveraging our global connectivity and sector expertise across the payments value chain, we look forward to supporting management as they continue to scale, extend their capabilities and deliver meaningful, lasting impact by improving access to modern financial services worldwide."
— Matteo Stefanel, Co-Founder and Managing Partner
The pre-seed round was led by founder Bradley Jones and backed by angels from Aligned Syndicate.
"More than 1,500 structured funding applications have gone through ThatRound’s matching workflow. Of the deals our AI engine surfaces to investors, two in three result in an intro request. And every single founder whose application doesn’t progress receives specific feedback on why — on fit, not a standard rejection. That second part shouldn’t feel remarkable, but in early-stage fundraising, it does. The fact that founders find that level of transparency unusual tells you everything about how the market has been working until now."
The financing round was led by AlbionVC with ongoing backing from Outward and Form Ventures.
"The market demand for Firenze’s solution has exceeded our expectations and as a result our vision has got more and more ambitious. We, therefore, felt now was the right time to take on further capital to accelerate our plans. When seeking a partner to work with for this next phase of growth Jay and Albion stood out."
The financing round was led by TCEE Fund IV to support regional expansion and product development.
