Global payments firm Airwallex has secured $300 million in a Series F funding round, boosting its valuation to $6.2 billion. The round includes $150 million in secondary share sales and attracted fresh backing from Visa Ventures alongside existing investors like Square Peg, DST Global, Lone Pine Capital, Blackbird, Airtree, and Salesforce Ventures.
Founded in Melbourne, Australia in 2015, Airwallex offers cross-border payment solutions, expense management, and multi-currency debit cards to more than 150,000 businesses. The company has experienced rapid growth, hitting $720 million in annualised revenue as of March 2025 — a 90% year-on-year increase.
Airwallex has steadily expanded its footprint across the Americas and EMEA. It has recently opened a permanent U.S. headquarters in San Francisco, along with new offices in New York, Toronto, and Paris. The company’s global headquarters is currently based in Singapore. The latest funding will support continued growth into markets such as Japan, Korea, the UAE, and Latin America, while also accelerating go-to-market strategies in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia.
Airwallex CEO Jack Zhang commented:
“Too many businesses are held back by legacy infrastructure that’s slow, costly, and fragmented. At Airwallex, we’re building a new foundation for the global economy — one that’s fast, seamless, and built for scale.”
