Transforming Lives Through Payments Innovation: ConnexPay's $110 Million Series C Funding

The past two years have been a wild ride.

Initially founded to serve companies operating in the travel industry, ConnexPay today supports a wide array of travel agencies, tour operators, and air and hotel consolidators with their payments needs.

As the travel industry bounces back from the effects of COVID-19, “revenge travel” is sweeping the world—consumers are eager to make up for lost time. During this exciting period, ConnexPay is proud to announce our $110 million Series C funding round, led by FTV Capital, with participation from current investors Panoramic Ventures and F-Prime Capital.

This latest investment will power:

• International expansion across Europe and beyond
• Continued enhancement of our innovative payments platform

With this new round, ConnexPay’s total funding reaches $145 million.

Why FTV Capital Invested in ConnexPay

ConnexPay’s technology enables commerce intermediaries—such as online travel agencies (OTAs)—to combine payment acceptance and issuance in a single solution.

Key benefits include:

• Virtual credit card payments that simplify the payments experience and drive rebates
• New revenue streams for merchants of record by monetizing the payment flow
• Improved economics without the need for credit lines or pre-funded accounts
• Faster settlement and increased liquidity, as incoming customer funds are available immediately
• Simplified reporting and reconciliation

With ConnexPay, clients benefit from a seamless, transparent payments ecosystem that accelerates their business.
