HitPay CEO and co-founder Aditya Haripurkar said: “We are thrilled to have the backing of incredible investors in our mission to empower SMEs with easy, accessible digital payments.
“SMEs are still underserved, with limited resources and poor access to affordable payment services. With our Series A funding, HitPay can continue to support the unique needs of our merchants, and build the best payment gateway for small businesses.”
HitPay, which currently serves over 10,000 merchants, provides a spectrum of payment solutions, including local and cross-border payment acceptance and payouts, an online store platform, POS software with card readers, plugins, and payment links.
