Fin Raises $17 Million to Build Stablecoin App for Large Cross-Border Payments

Founded by ex-Citadel colleagues, Fin targets high-value business transfers that consumer payment apps cannot handle.

Overview

  • Pantera Capital led the Series A with participation from Sequoia Capital and Samsung Next, and the company did not disclose a valuation.
  • Fin is developing a user-friendly app for instant transfers to other users, bank accounts, or crypto wallets using stablecoin rails to cut fees.
  • The product remains pre-launch, with a pilot planned next month for import–export businesses and hiring underway to expand the team.
  • Fin says it will generate revenue from transaction fees and interest earned on stablecoin balances held in customer wallets.
  • Some coverage reports the platform will run on Solana, a detail not stated in the company’s announcement as confirmed.
