Dock intends to utilise the proceeds from the round to support its international expansion plans and accelerate its product development roadmap.
The firm also plans to use the fresh capital to hire new resources as it forays into the $18.5bn total addressable market for card processing and banking-as-a-service (BaaS) in the Latin American region.
Dock CEO Antonio Soares said: “This investment validates our vision of bringing great solutions to the market that solve real business problems for our clients, while increasing and democratising access to financial services.
“As we close this funding round, we are excited to continue innovating and expanding while building products that help our clients grow by providing fast, efficient and personalised financial services to their customers. We add value because payments and banking are complex global businesses with local specificities, and we understand that better than anyone else.”
