Bengaluru-based fintech, Cashfree, has received $35.3 million (₹260 crore) as part of its Series B raise. The investment was led by growth stage financial services investor, Apis Growth Fund II, with participation from existing investor Y Combinator.
A press statement from the company said the fund’s investment comes as Cashfree’s rapid growth has accelerated with rising e-commerce penetration by increasing adoption of Indian businesses and consumers. The investment will support the company’s growth plans, including launching and further rolling out new products. More recently, Cashfree has introduced solutions such as an instant settlement offering on its payment gateway and a UPI Stack with 15 ready-to-use integrations for all business payment needs, including collections, disbursals, and verifications using UPI infrastructure.
