Airwallex, a global financial platform for modern businesses, raised $330 million in a Series G funding round, led by Addition and with participation from T. Rowe Price, Activant, Lingotto, Robinhood Ventures and TIAA Ventures.
The financing values Airwallex at $8 billion, an increase of about 30% since its Series F six months ago. The investment will fuel Airwallex’s continued growth in the US and key markets worldwide, while driving expanded AI hiring and product development.
Also, Airwallex has established a second global headquarters in San Francisco and will deploy more than $1 billion from 2026-2029 to scale its US operations, attract top talent, and expand its physical and brand footprint.
“We believe the future of global banking will be borderless, real-time, and intelligent,” said Jack Zhang, co-founder and CEO of Airwallex.
“Legacy providers are fundamentally incompatible with how modern businesses operate, and our investors understand that we’re pulling ahead in the race to define this category,” Zhang said. “We’re building a modern alternative, a single platform that powers global banking, payments, billing, treasury, and spend on top of proprietary financial infrastructure.
Airwallex has 80 licenses and permits worldwide, enabling customers to operate in 200+ countries and regions, and power multi-currency checkout at scale.
In 2025, Airwallex extended its regulated footprint and local capabilities in 12 new markets – securing new licenses and launching products across France, the Netherlands, Israel, Canada, Korea, Japan, New Zealand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Brazil, Mexico, the United Arab Emirates and more.
“The traditional financial system wasn’t built for borderless businesses, and Airwallex is uniquely equipped to solve this challenge,” said Lee Fixel at Addition. “With its global financial infrastructure, software and AI capabilities, the company is exceptionally well positioned to lead the future of global business banking.”
