Infinia, the digital finance infrastructure layer linking traditional banking grids with the digital asset rails, today announced it has raised $13.5 million in Series A funding. The oversubscribed round was led by Bain Capital and Variant Fund, with participation from Y Combinator, Lattice, Varrock, Reverie, Decacorn, G2, and Tekton Ventures.
The new injection of capital will be used to secure additional regional regulatory licenses and accelerate expansion across its core operational markets in Latin America, Africa and Asia.
Global monetary frameworks are adapting to an era of intense technological acceleration, where fast-moving on-chain networks and programmatic automation are defining the future of commerce. But while technology evolves at a breakneck pace, the practical reality of global trade is that businesses still navigate local currencies. That is the exact friction point we solve. Infinia is the default infrastructure layer that lets businesses in emerging markets operate seamlessly across on-chain rails and traditional financial services, ready for a world where money moves at the speed of code. — Ianai Urwicz
Infinia bridges the gap between traditional domestic banking grids and digital asset rails. While enterprise cross-border commerce increasingly leverages stablecoins for 24/7 settlement speed, digital currencies remain structurally isolated from local fiat networks, such as Brazil’s Pix or Mexico’s SPEI. Infinia solves this friction by building the critical technical and regulatory pipes that interconnect legacy clearing corridors with digital ledger efficiency. Engineered with a native compliance-first architecture, Infinia absorbs the operational overhead of fragmented local KYC/KYB mandates and regional banking complexities, enabling automated multi-currency settlement and continuous real-time treasury netting.
Operating with a lean team of 20 employees, Infinia has become the infrastructure partner of choice for tier-1 global fintechs, marketplaces, and corporate platforms. Its active client roster includes market leaders such as Stripe/Bridge, OpenFX, Kast, and Despegar.
The company was founded by CEO Ianai Urwicz, former founding team member at dLocal (NASDAQ: DLO), and CTO Alejandro Rettig, who brings 25 years of telecom and financial systems expertise. The duo launched Infinia out of Y Combinator’s Winter 2023 batch, where they were selected from over 20,000 global applicants.
“People talk a lot about stablecoins, but underestimate the difficulty of the last mile — of truly connecting on-chain and local fiat accounts and networks in emerging markets,” said Parth Chopra, Partner at Bain Capital. “Ianai, Alejandro, and their lean team are doing the rigorous engineering and compliance work to allow for deep, seamless integrations into local payment systems across the world. And as a result, Infinia is becoming the default fintech infra provider for leading companies that want to go global from day one.”
