By GlobalDataThe fresh capital will be leveraged by CellPoint to accelerate its global expansion and support its entry to new markets, including retail, gaming, crypto and digital content.
As a payment orchestrator, the firm enables merchants to embrace a multi-acquirer payments model by increasing top-line revenue utilising intelligent routing and authorisation.
It is also claimed to provide system uptime transparency and minimise the operation cost of accepting cross border payments.
Commenting on the fundraising, CellPoint Digital CEO Kristian Gjerding said: “The past few years have seen extraordinary growth for CellPoint Digital. We continue to experience strong demand from a range of enterprises wishing to optimise their digital payment and commerce solutions, while countering the major challenges they face with existing providers to deliver quickly and cost-efficiently.
“With a business foundation that is stronger than it’s ever been, the logical next step is to widen our global reach and penetrate new market verticals that stand to be transformed by our solutions.”
