Mesh Payments, an Israeli fintech startup, raised $60 million in a Series C round of financing led by Alpha Wave. This raise comes just 10 months after the company brought in $50 million in a Series B round held last December. Mesh Payments has now brought in a total of $123 million to date.
Mesh Payments’ CEO described this funding round as a “validation of the strength of our product, the value it provides to businesses and the hardworking team at Mesh.”
Mesh Payments was founded in 2018 by CEO Oded Zehavi, former manager at PayPal-Israel and former senior executive at Payoneer, and by Eren Katoni, who previously was VP of R&D at Gartner-Israel.
