[Richie Serna @RSerna2010]

Today @finix is excited to announce we’ve raised $75M in Series C funding led by @AcrewCapital, co-led by @lightspeedvp and @leappartners.

When we started Finix, we were big believers in the developer movement. We still are! Since then, we’ve recognized that there’s been a major shift in the market. Even businesses that have developers don’t want to spend their time or resources on payments — they want highly brandable and configurable payment components. From startups to publicly traded companies, merchants to vertical SaaS companies, customers of all sizes are taking advantage of Finix’s no-code solutions. Today, every feature in Finix's broad product suite is now available in no-code, low-code and API-driven solutions.

If Adyen is for the enterprise, Square is for card present SMBs, Stripe is for the developer-centric startup, Finix is for the 22M businesses without enough developers.

Raising VC isn't a flex. Distributing profits is the flex.
