The firm’s latest round saw participation from venture capital funds Elaia and Bpifrance. Both join French funds Serena and Breega, which first invested in iBanFirst in 2018.<\/p>\n
IBanFirst allows its users to make cross-border payments in up to 30 currencies. The firm partners with local banks to provide the underlying infrastructure and to reduce costs.<\/p>\n
Founded in Paris in 2013, the company is headquartered in Belgium with operations in France, the Netherlands and Germany.<\/p>\n
It secured $17 million in funding back in November 2018, and used the money to make two acquisitions at the end of 2019: Dutch company Nederlandsche Betaal & Wisselmaatschappij<\/a> and Berlin-based Forexfix.<\/p>\n The firm claims that it has experienced a tripling in the volume of its payment transactions, and three-figure revenue growth.<\/p>\n “The fintech sector, and especially the international payments sector, is on course to becoming one of the clear winners of this crisis period,” says Xavier Lazarus, managing partner at Elaia.<\/p>\n This is why we are both proud and delighted to support iBanFirst in its international growth and in the development of a leading pan- European digital platform.”<\/p>\n Pierre-Antoine Dusoulier, CEO and founder of iBanFirst, says the funding is a “decisive step” towards achieving maturity as a company.<\/p>\n “To support companies in their international growth, we will strive to offer transactions that are increasingly straightforward, secure and transparent, within a network nurturing mutual trust.”<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> Alex Hamilton <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"See Campaign: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.fintechfutures.com\/2019\/11\/ibanfirst-acquires-dutch-exchange-firm-nbwm\/<\/a>
