Partnership with Alpha Capital and BD Ventures to Deepen Global Payments and Settlement Network Expansion
PFI announced that it has officially completed the strategic investment signing with Alpha Capital and BD Ventures, with the first-round strategic investment of US$4 million formally secured by PFI. The investment represents a combined 4% equity stake in PFI, bringing the company’s post-money valuation to US$100 million.
The completion of the signing and first-round investment marks a new stage in the strategic cooperation among PFI, Alpha Capital, and BD Ventures. The three parties will further collaborate across capital, global market resources, ecosystem development, and international business expansion, providing additional support for the long-term development of PFI’s global payments business.
First-Round US$4 Million Investment Officially Completed
Under the strategic cooperation arrangement, Alpha Capital and BD Ventures participated in PFI’s first round of strategic investment, with a combined investment amount of US$4 million. The relevant strategic investment agreements have now been formally signed, marking the official completion of the first-round investment.
The investment will not only provide additional capital support for PFI’s next phase of global market expansion, but also further strengthen PFI’s relationships with international investment and ecosystem partners.
Alpha Capital has long focused on investment, project incubation, and global ecosystem resource integration across Web3 and emerging technology sectors, while BD Ventures brings an extensive global network spanning communities, market promotion, KOLs, and media resources.
Through this cooperation, PFI will further connect capital, markets, and global ecosystem resources to support the continued expansion of its international business footprint.
Continuing to Strengthen the Global Payments and Settlement Network
PFI is continuing to build a cross-border payments and settlement network designed for global markets, connecting payment channels across different countries and regions with local fiat access, foreign exchange, liquidity, clearing, and multi-party settlement infrastructure.
As the global payments system continues to become more digital, the efficiency of cross-border transactions depends not only on the payment interface, but also on liquidity connectivity between markets, foreign exchange capabilities, and reliable clearing and settlement infrastructure.
By integrating payment and liquidity resources across different markets, PFI aims to further shorten cross-border fund-flow pathways and improve coordination across payments, clearing, and settlement.
Second-Phase Strategic Investment to Continue
The completion of the first-round US$4 million strategic investment represents the first phase of the parties’ long-term capital cooperation.
Under the broader cooperation plan, PFI will continue advancing a second-phase strategic investment of US$10 million, while gradually introducing additional international capital and ecosystem resources in subsequent phases to further strengthen its global liquidity foundation and international market expansion capabilities.
PFI’s long-term development strategy extends beyond a single payment service. The company plans to continue expanding around the global payments ecosystem, with future development covering areas including cross-border liquidity, global clearing and settlement, stablecoin aggregation, integrated payment applications, and institutional-grade market services.
By continuously connecting different countries, currencies, markets, and financial participants, PFI aims to establish a more comprehensive global payment connectivity infrastructure and provide more efficient foundational support for cross-border transactions by enterprises and institutions.
From Capital Partnership to Global Ecosystem Collaboration
The formal completion of this strategic investment represents an important milestone in PFI’s global development journey.
With Alpha Capital and BD Ventures officially becoming strategic investors in PFI, the three parties are expected to deepen cooperation across capital, market resources, global ecosystems, and business development.
PFI will continue to place payments at the center of its strategy while strengthening global liquidity connectivity and cross-border clearing capabilities, and continuing to expand payment networks across international markets.
Connecting global liquidity. Improving the efficiency of cross-border payments.
PFI is continuing to build a more open and efficient global payments and settlement network.
