Yuno fast-tracks merchant access to Revolut payment stack. By PYMNTS | September 4, 2026 Merchants can now use one Yuno connection to add Revolut's biometric one-click checkout, Revolut Pay, as well as Revolut's acquiring and gateway services, Yuno said in a Thursday (Sept. 3) press release. The offering is enabled by a new partnership of Yuno and Revolut Business, according to the release. The partnership integrates Revolut's full payment stack with Yuno's artificial intelligence-native operating system of global commerce that powers the financial infrastructure of enterprise merchants, banks and wallets. It enables merchants to activate Revolut's payment stack without writing new integration code, the release said. The integration covers markets where Revolut Pay is available at checkout, including the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, Singapore and Australia, per the release. Yuno Co-Founder and CEO Juan Pablo Ortega said in the release that merchants can't afford a separate build for all the wallets that are available, even as wallets increasingly decide the checkout. Please add Mappedin to your preferred sources list so its news, data and interviews show up in your feed. Thanks! "Revolut connected its stack to Yuno once," Ortega said. "Now, eligible merchants on our platform can switch on a checkout - plus acquiring and gateway - as easily as they turn on any other payment method." Yuno announced in August that it raised $45 million in a Series B funding round to scale its platform. The company said at the time that its platform connects businesses through a single API to more than 1,000 payment methods and 460 integrations across 190 countries. The platform has intelligent routing, one-click checkout and AI-powered fraud detection built in. Yuno said it will use the funding for research and development, next-generation payments technology and the continued expansion of its global infrastructure. "Being local everywhere is the hardest problem in payments, and anyone starting on it today is at least two years behind," Ortega said in the August announcement. "With this round, we intend to consolidate that leadership on a truly global scale, with real financial discipline." In September 2025, Yuno launched a series of AI agents called NOVA that turn card declines, abandoned checkouts and missed payments into AI-powered customer conversations via phone and WhatsApp that recover revenue and surface additional data signals from customers.
Yuno raises $45 million Series B to scale its global payments operating system. Payments infrastructure company Yuno has raised $45 million in a Series B round led by Global PayTech Ventures, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, QuantumLight Capital, Monashees, Kaszek and Endeavor Catalyst. The round also drew in regional strategic investors including Rasmal Ventures, backed by the Qatar Investment Authority, and Further Ventures, an Abu Dhabi based sovereign backed firm. Yuno announced the raise on August 12, 2026 and says the money will go into research and development, next generation payments technology, and further expansion of its global infrastructure. Yuno describes itself as an AI-native operating system for global payments, which in practical terms means it sits between a merchant and the many payment providers that merchant needs to work with. What Yuno actually does. Any business selling across borders quickly runs into the same problem. Each market has its own preferred payment rails, its own acquirers, its own fraud rules and its own failure modes. Integrating each one separately is expensive, and switching between them is worse. Yuno's pitch is a single integration layer that routes transactions intelligently across providers. The company says that over the past year it recovered more than $5 billion in transaction volume that would otherwise have failed for merchants on its network, lifted authorisation rates by roughly 5 percent, and saved customers more than $500 million in processing costs. Those are company reported figures rather than independently audited numbers, and they should be treated accordingly. The full announcement is available via GlobeNewswire, and PYMNTS covered the round as well. Where the money goes next. Yuno has flagged three directions for the new capital. It is extending the platform into in-person payments, moving beyond the online checkout it started with. It is building what it calls agentic commerce capabilities, which points at transactions initiated by AI agents rather than humans clicking a button. And it is scaling its presence in the United States market. The Gulf angle is worth noting separately. The raise follows Yuno Payments Arabia receiving Payment Technical Service Provider certification from the Saudi Central Bank in April 2026, and a partnership with Tap Payments that opened local rails including Mada, KNET and NAPS across all six GCC countries. That combination of a regulator certification plus local rail access is what actually lets a payments company operate in the region, and it explains why Qatari and Emirati investors joined the round. What this signals for founders and freelancers. A few things are worth pulling out of this deal. Infrastructure is where the durable businesses are. Yuno is not a consumer brand. Most people who benefit from it will never hear its name. That is often the pattern with payments, logistics and identity companies, and it is a useful reminder for founders that the least glamorous layer of a market is frequently the most defensible. Payment failure is a real and under-appreciated cost. The headline claim in this round is not that Yuno made payments cheaper. It is that Yuno stopped payments from failing. If you sell internationally, whether as an agency, a SaaS product or a store, the transactions that silently fail at checkout are usually a bigger leak than your processing fees. Agentic commerce is being funded before it exists at scale. Multiple companies are now building for a world where software agents complete purchases. Whether that arrives quickly or slowly, the infrastructure is being laid now, and it will shape how online selling works for everyone downstream. For anyone in Pakistan or the wider region building a business that takes payment from international clients, the underlying trend matters more than the individual round. Cross border payment rails are getting denser and more automated. That reduces one of the oldest practical barriers to selling your work globally. Sharing is caring!
Qatar's home-grown VC fund bets on the rails under Gulf checkouts. Rasmal Ventures joined a $45m Series B for Yuno, the payments firm that made Doha its Gulf base and cleared the Saudi regulator in April. AI Snapshot The TL;DR: what matters, fast. Qatar's Rasmal Ventures joined a $45 million Series B for Yuno, a Colombian payments infrastructure company that now runs its Gulf business from Doha. Global PayTech Ventures led; Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global and Endeavor Catalyst were among the existing backers taking part. Yuno's local entity was certified as a Payment Technical Service Provider by the Saudi Central Bank in April 2026, and partnerships with Tap Payments and Tabby opened domestic Gulf rails. Rasmal's debut fund targets $100 million and was the first commitment from the Qatar Investment Authority's $1 billion fund-of-funds programme. Rasmal Ventures, the first independent venture capital firm raised inside Qatar, has taken a position in a $45 million Series B for Yuno, a payments infrastructure company headquartered in Colombia that now runs its Gulf operations out of Doha. The round was led by Global PayTech Ventures. Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, QuantumLight Capital, Monashees, Kaszek and Endeavor Catalyst also took part, alongside two other regional investors, Further Ventures and GrowthX Capital. The size of the cheque is not the interesting part. The direction of travel is. A Latin American infrastructure company picked a Gulf state as its regional base, and the region's newest fund used its balance sheet to make that choice harder to reverse. What Doha actually bought into. Yuno was founded in 2022 by Juan Pablo Ortega and Julian Nunez, and it sits in an unglamorous layer of the payments stack. A merchant integrates once, and Yuno handles the connections to more than 1,000 payment methods across 190 countries, along with routing, fraud screening, identity checks and settlement. The company calls the product an AI-native payments operating system, which in practice means routing and fraud decisions are model-driven rather than rule tables maintained by hand. The figures it puts behind that are operational rather than promotional. It says it recovered $5 billion of transaction volume over the past year that would otherwise have failed, lifted authorisation rates by around 5 per cent, and took roughly $500 million out of customers' processing costs. It added 150 integrations in the last twelve months, taking the total past 460, and says it is on a path to process $100 billion a year within a year. Chief executive Ortega was direct about what the money is for. "Most companies raise a Series B to buy growth. We're raising ours to meet our customers' growth, and extend our lead, with a clear line to profitability in the year ahead," he said. A company that expects to be profitable inside twelve months cannot spend much of a $45 million round subsidising new markets. The Gulf leg is the part that matters. Yuno has spent most of the past year assembling Gulf permissions and rails. In April its local entity, Yuno Payments Arabia, was certified as a Payment Technical Service Provider by the Saudi Central Bank, the licence category that lets a technical processor sit in the transaction flow without holding customer funds. A partnership with Tap Payments opened domestic schemes including Mada in Saudi Arabia, KNET in Kuwait and NAPS in Qatar across all six Gulf Cooperation Council states. A separate agreement with Tabby connected the platform to the buy-now-pay-later base Tabby claims across Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. That sequence explains the Qatari money. Rasmal partner Soumaya Ben Beya Dridje framed the thesis in a line: "The hardest problem in payments is being genuinely local everywhere, and Yuno has solved it at global scale." Being local means scheme membership, settlement accounts, regulator relationships and dispute handling in each market, and almost none of it generalises across borders. Why a Colombian company needed a Qatari cheque. Rasmal is small by Gulf standards, deliberately. Its debut vehicle, Rasmal Innovation Fund I, targets $100 million and announced a first close above $30 million, and it was named the first commitment out of the Qatar Investment Authority's $1 billion fund-of-funds programme. For a fund that size, writing into a round led by a specialist paytech investor buys regional relevance rather than ownership. The trade runs both ways. Qatar's fintech ambitions are held back by the same constraint that holds back Kuwait and Bahrain: a domestic market too small to justify building the infrastructure locally. Importing a platform that already works across 190 countries, and giving it a commercial reason to keep staff in Doha, is cheaper than funding a national equivalent from scratch. * Rasmal, Further Ventures and GrowthX Capital came in as strategic regional investors rather than as lead. * Yuno's Gulf permissions now cover technical processing in Saudi Arabia and domestic scheme access across the GCC. * The company's stated route to profitability sits inside the next financial year, which caps how much of this round can go on new-market subsidy. What to watch next. Three things will show whether the Doha hub is real. Headcount is the first: a regional office that stays at a handful of commercial staff is a sales post, not a hub. The second is whether Yuno wins a named Gulf enterprise merchant of its own, rather than serving Gulf traffic for global brands already on the platform. The third is licensing depth, because technical service provider status is the shallowest permission in the stack and the better margin sits closer to acquiring. For founders in the region there is a plainer read, and the regional coverage of the round makes it visible. The cheque went to an operator that had already done the regulatory work in Saudi Arabia, and it came from a fund that needed to prove it could sit at a table with Andreessen Horowitz.

Yuno raises US$45 million Series B with Gulf investor backing. Yuno says the funding will support its path to profitability, alongside expansion into in-person payments and agentic commerce. Get the hottest Fintech Singapore News once a month in your Inbox Yuno has raised a US$45 million Series B round led by Global PayTech Ventures, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, QuantumLight Capital, Monashees, Kaszek, and regional investors Rasmal Ventures, Further Ventures, and GrowthX Capital. The Colombia-founded payments infrastructure company said the funding will accelerate its path to profitability and fund continued product expansion, including agentic commerce and its banking-sector business. Yuno connects businesses to more than 1,000 payment methods and 460+ integrations across over 190 countries through a single API, with built-in intelligent routing, one-click checkout, and AI-powered fraud detection. Over the past year, the company said it recovered more than US$5 billion in otherwise-failed transaction volume for merchants, lifted authorisation rates by roughly 5%, and saved customers over US$500 million in processing costs. Yuno's customers include McDonald's, NetEase Games, GoFundMe, inDrive, and Rappi, and the company said it is on track to process US$100 billion in annual transaction volume within the next 12 months. The round's regional investors underscore Yuno's momentum in the Gulf. The financing follows Yuno Payments Arabia's Payment Technical Service Provider certification from the Saudi Central Bank in April, a partnership with Tap Payments that opened local payment rails including Mada, KNET, and NAPS across all six GCC countries, and a buy-now-pay-later partnership with Tabby serving more than 25 million shoppers across Saudi Arabia and the UAE. "The hardest problem in payments is being genuinely local everywhere," said Soumaya Ben Beya Dridje, Partner at Rasmal Ventures, a Qatar Investment Authority-backed fund. She said the Gulf's payments market is growing quickly and that Yuno pairs global ambition with the financial discipline the region's new trade corridors need. Juan Pablo Ortega, Co-Founder and CEO of Yuno, said the company is raising the round to meet customer growth and extend its lead, with a clear line to profitability over the coming year, crediting AI for changing the economics of building payments infrastructure compared to earlier generations of players. Building a regional hub. Yuno has established Qatar as its regional hub for the Gulf Cooperation Council, building on its Tap Payments and Tabby partnerships and its Saudi regulatory certification. Rasmal Ventures and Further Ventures, a sovereign-backed investment firm based in Abu Dhabi, join GrowthX Capital, backed by entrepreneur Hamad Al-Hajri, as regional backers of the round. ACI Worldwide has ranked the Middle East as the world's fastest-growing real-time payments market.

Rasmal Ventures participates in Yuno's $45 million round. By: rootdata | 2026/08/12 12:21:50 * Rasmal Ventures, a Qatari investment firm, has invested in a $45 million Series B round for Yuno, a Colombia-based payment infrastructure company, coinciding with the company's selection of Qatar as its regional headquarters for operations in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. * Rasmal participated in the round alongside GrowthX Capital and Further Ventures, while Global PayTech Ventures led the round with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, and other investors. * Yuno was founded in 2022 by Juan Pablo Ortega and Julián Núñez, connecting businesses to over 1,000 payment methods in 190 countries through a unified API. * Yuno has expanded its presence in the Gulf by obtaining regulatory approval in Saudi Arabia, along with partnerships with Tap Payments and Tabby. Rasmal Ventures, the first institutional-backed investment company in Qatar trusted by sovereign wealth funds including the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), today confirmed its investment in Yuno's $45 million Series B funding round. Yuno is the AI-powered operating system for payments and financial services globally, powering the financial infrastructure for major commercial enterprises, banks, and digital wallets. The round was led by Global PayTech Ventures, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Tiger Global, QuantumLight Capital, Monashees, Kaszek, and Endeavor Catalyst. Rasmal joined as a strategic regional investor alongside GrowthX Capital, one of Rasmal's investors, and Further Ventures, a sovereign-backed investment firm based in Abu Dhabi. For Rasmal, this investment represents a direct expression of the company's business model, which focuses on providing real value to businesses operating in the GCC before injecting capital, rather than merely writing checks. This positions Rasmal as a strategic regional partner for entrepreneurs, both locally and globally. Yuno achieved this before the round: it established Qatar as a regional headquarters and launchpad for the region, and Yuno Payments Arabia obtained a payment technology service provider license from the Saudi Central Bank in April 2026. It also partnered with Tap Payments to open local payment channels, including Mada, KNET, and NAPS, in the six GCC countries, and formed a buy now, pay later partnership with Tabby, connecting the platform to over 25 million shoppers in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The timing here is significant. ACI Worldwide classifies the Middle East as the fastest-growing instant payments market in the world, a market whose growth today extends along the same trade corridors that connect the Gulf to Asia, through the wallets, channels, and shoppers that Yuno already serves. "The hardest part of payments is being truly local in every market, which is what Yuno has succeeded in achieving on a global scale, and that's precisely why its model resonates in our region," said Soumaya Ben Bia Dredji, a partner at Rasmal Ventures. "The Gulf today is one of the fastest-growing payments markets in the world, and its future extends along its new trade corridors, which are the wallets, channels, and shoppers themselves that Yuno connects. We invested because Juan Pablo and his team are building the infrastructure needed for these corridors, and because they combine global ambition with real financial discipline. This is a rare combination, and it's exactly what we invest in." Hamad Al-Hajri, founder of GrowthX Capital, added, "I have known founder Juan Pablo since his journey with Rappi, the first Colombian company to surpass a billion-dollar valuation. I believe he is building his next billion-dollar company with Yuno, but this time from the GCC countries, with Qatar as its regional headquarters." Yuno enables businesses to connect, through a single API, to over 1,000 payment methods and more than 460 integrations in over 190 countries, with smart transaction routing, one-click payments, and AI-powered fraud detection. Over the past year, the company recovered more than $5 billion in transaction volume that would have failed for merchants on its network, increased transaction approval rates by about 5 percent, and saved its clients over $500 million in processing costs. Global brands managing their payments through Yuno include McDonald's, NetEase Games, GoFundMe, inDrive, Rappi, and others. Juan Pablo Ortega, co-founder and CEO of Yuno, stated, "Most companies raise Series B funding to buy growth, while we are raising it to keep up with our customers' growth and expand the gap we are achieving, with a clear path to profitability over the next year. Being local everywhere is one of the hardest challenges in payments, and those who start working on it today are at least two years behind." This investment is part of Rasmal's program to build a two-way access between Gulf markets and global innovation, across the Middle East, North Africa, Turkey, and Asia.
