Escrowpay, India’s pioneer in digital escrow platforms, is delighted to announce the successful completion of a $600 thousand capital raise from its existing investors. The funding is reflective of the unwavering confidence of stakeholders in the company’s vision, strategic direction, and potential for sustained growth. The latest infusion brings the total raised to an impressive $6.6 million, contributing to the ongoing Series A round targeting $15 million.
The company recently achieved a significant milestone by securing the first digital escrow regulatory fintech authorization from IFSCA, Gift City. This marks a pivotal moment in Escrowpay’s commitment to compliance and innovation in digital payments. The company has been recognized globally for its innovative solutions, having received the prestigious ‘Best Escrow Platform Asia 2023’ award from Global Financial Markets, UK.
Currently serving over 3000 clients, including SMEs, unicorns, listed enterprises, and emerging digital-first businesses across India, Escrowpay has processed transactions exceeding Rs. 15,000 crore. The fresh capital injection will be strategically utilized to accelerate Escrowpay’s initiatives, support key growth areas, and foster innovation within the payments ecosystem. As part of its expansion plans, Escrowpay is intensifying its focus on cross-border transactions with a presence in overseas geographies such as UAE and the UK. The groundwork for this expansion has already begun, reflecting the company’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its clients on a global scale.
One of the significant developments is the launch of BizSuraksha, an industry-first ‘on-the-go and on-demand escrow’ digital solution.
