MANSA, a global FinTech firm specialising in cross-border payments, has successfully closed a $10m funding round.
The company aims to alleviate liquidity challenges for payment firms worldwide through its stablecoin-based solutions, according to FF News.
The funding round includes a $3m pre-seed investment led by Tether and co-led by Polymorphic Capital, with additional participation from Octerra Capital, Faculty Group, and Trive Digital.
An additional $7m in liquidity funding was secured from institutional investors, including corporate backers, quantitative funds, and alternative investment firms.
MANSA’s platform provides payment providers across emerging and mature markets with flexible liquidity solutions for cross-border transactions. By leveraging stablecoins, the company offers a faster, more cost-efficient way to settle payments while reducing transaction delays.
The new capital will be used to drive MANSA’s expansion into Latin America and Southeast Asia, where demand for efficient cross-border payment solutions continues to grow.
Additionally, the company plans to roll out tailored liquidity and ancillary services to support complex global transactions.
MANSA has already established partnerships with major payment companies across Africa, Asia, and South America. Since its launch in August 2024, the company has processed $27m in transactions, including $11m in on-chain transactions in January, representing a 574% increase from August 2024.
“Securing $10 million in pre-seed and liquidity funding marks a significant milestone in our mission to transform the way money moves. By bringing payments on-chain and leveraging efficient liquidity solutions, we are addressing critical challenges in cross-border transactions—making payments faster, cheaper, and more reliable worldwide,” MANSA CEO Mouloukou Sanoh said. “This funding accelerates our global expansion, enabling us to empower payment companies with seamless, real-time settlement infrastructure and drive the future of payments.”
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino highlighted MANSA’s impact on cross-border payments, stating, “MANSA’s vision for addressing liquidity challenges in cross-border payments aligns with our mission to create a more efficient and inclusive financial system. By leveraging USDT for real-time settlements and instant payouts, MANSA is solving critical pain points for payment companies operating in emerging markets.
