Noah, a stablecoin payments infrastructure provider based in London, announced on October 7, 2026, that it has closed its Seed funding round at US$38 million. The company secured an additional US$16 million from existing and new investors to reach the final total. The announcement follows a year of rapid commercial momentum, a 538% revenue increase, and rising demand for faster cross-border payment tools.
Funding and Growth Momentum
Noah reported a 538% increase in year-to-date 2026 revenue compared with the same period in 2025, while recurring monthly growth reached 31%. The company signed more than 150 new customers during the year, including major global platforms and financial institutions across remittances, fintech, marketplaces, and payroll. This expansion reflects a broader shift as customers replace legacy correspondent banking with faster and cheaper stablecoin transfers.
Cross-Border Payments Market
Cross-border payments reached US$208 trillion in 2025 and generated an estimated US$625 billion in annual revenue for banks and intermediaries. Small and medium business payments represented just 7% of this total flow but accounted for 31% of banks' revenue. These transactions cost businesses US$194 billion a year in fees, foreign exchange spreads, and operational charges.
Stablecoin Adoption Accelerates
B2B stablecoin payments have reached an annualized value of US$226 billion, an increase of 733% year over year. Stablecoins currently account for less than 1% of the US$34.8 trillion in annual cross-border B2B payments. This gap highlights the opportunity for future adoption as businesses seek alternatives to legacy correspondent banking and its associated delays and fees.
Global Reach and Service Model
Noah is live in more than 150 markets and supports over 60 currencies, enabling seamless cross-border payments that replace traditional correspondent bank chains. The company serves enterprises and individuals directly, and also works indirectly through consumer platforms, fintech companies, neobanks, and workforce platforms. These partners aggregate large numbers of businesses, contractors, and individual users who benefit from faster settlement and lower costs.
Strategic Use of Capital
The new funding will support Noah's international money transfer services and expansion into high-volume markets. The company plans to grow its regulatory footprint, recruit engineering and compliance specialists, and deepen connections with local payment rails in its most active corridors. Noah will also accelerate its US expansion by opening an office in New York, reinforcing its ability to maintain compliance at both ends of a transaction.
Executive Perspective
According to Noah, stablecoins combine the flexibility of digital currencies with the stability of fiat currencies to allow money to move at the speed of the internet. The company is building infrastructure for one-click international transactions with full compliance at both the origination and destination of funds. It aims to bring this infrastructure to more businesses and individuals globally.
Investor Support
The round was supported by Endeit Capital, FJ Labs, LocalGlobe, Felix Capital, and a select group of high-profile angels. The participation of both existing and new investors underscores confidence in Noah's stablecoin infrastructure and growth trajectory. The company believes its model can redefine global money transfer markets in the same way neobanks have revolutionized domestic banking, while the new capital positions it to capture greater stablecoin adoption.
Noah's latest capital injection positions the company to scale its stablecoin-based cross-border payment infrastructure at a time of accelerating adoption. With rising revenue, a growing customer base, and expanding market reach, the company is targeting a meaningful share of the multitrillion-dollar cross-border payments market. Its focus on compliance, local payment rails, and operational speed will be central to its next phase of growth.
