MetaComp Secures $35M Funding to Expand Stablecoin Payment Infrastructure

Last updated on May 12th, 2026 at 08:17 pm

Singapore-based fintech firm MetaComp has raised $35 million in Pre-A funding rounds completed within three months, with backing from investors including Alibaba and Spark Venture. The capital will support the expansion of MetaComp’s regulated digital finance infrastructure focused on integrating fiat payments with stablecoin networks.

This comes as MetaComp raised a total of US$35 million in combined Pre-A and Pre-A+ funding within three months, concluding in March 2026. Led by Alibaba and Spark Venture, this funding will accelerate the expansion of their StableX network across Asia, Africa, and Latin America for regulated Web 2.5 payments and wealth management.

Funding to accelerate web2.5 payments and tokenized finance

The company operates a Web2.5 financial platform designed to bridge traditional financial systems with blockchain-based payment and investment services. Through its infrastructure, institutions can conduct cross-border settlements using both traditional currencies and stablecoins on a unified platform.

MetaComp said the new funding will accelerate the growth of its StableX Network, a liquidity and settlement system that enables real-time payments across multiple regions, including Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. The platform supports transactions across more than 13 stablecoins and processed over $10 billion in payments and over-the-counter (OTC) volume in 2025.

Institutional crypto infrastructure gains momentum

MetaComp’s services operate under regulatory oversight from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, where the company is licensed as a Major Payment Institution providing digital payment tokens and cross-border money transfer services. Through its affiliate Alpha Ladder Finance, the platform also offers access to tokenized securities and digital asset investment products for institutional and accredited clients.

The group reported more than $500 million in assets under management and a monthly operational run rate exceeding $1 billion through its Client Asset Management Platform. Its ecosystem allows enterprises to move, convert, and manage funds through integrated services covering payments, treasury management, and digital asset investments.

According to the company, the latest funding will also support the development of AI-driven infrastructure designed to enhance compliance and automate financial operations across its blockchain-based payment and wealth services. 

Notably, MetaComp also published a whitepaper titled “Cross-Border Payments for SMEs: Voices in ASEAN and the Rise of Stablecoins.”
