C2FO Acquisition
C2FO was acquired by MYND FINTECH for an undisclosed price on 2 July 2026.
Before the acquisition C2FO had raised $556M across 7 funding rounds.
Mynd Fintech, a subsidiary of M1xchange (part of the Treds platform), acquired a 100% stake in C2FO India Technologies Private Limited through a share purchase transaction, with the deal announced in early July 2026. The acquisition sum is undisclosed, and Mynd Fintech CEO Sundeep Mohindru did not share other financial details including valuation or revenue figures. The strategic rationale centers on strengthening Mynd Fintech's position in India's supply chain finance market, with the combined entity expected to process Rs 60,000 crore worth of transactions annually on both buy and sell sides. C2FO India serves nearly 50% of Nifty50 companies and supports approximately 200,000 suppliers by providing early invoice payments and working capital solutions. The deal enables Mynd Fintech to operate C2FO India's platform while integrating its employees and client base. According to RBI data from May 2026, Rs 298 crore was financed through C2Treds (C2FO India's platform), compared to Rs 11,878 crore financed through M1xchange.

| Apr 2025 | Undisclosed stage | International Finance Corporation (lead) | $31M | $854M | C2FO is the world's on-demand working capital platform, providing businesses with fast, flexible, and equitable access to low-cost capital through patented Name Your Rate technology that enables early payments from large enterprises via dynamic discounting and supply chain financing. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, the company operates in over 160 countries, serving hundreds of thousands of business customers globally and focusing on suppliers, especially micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in emerging markets like Africa, India, Indonesia, and Brazil. On April 14, 2025, C2FO completed a $30 million (or $30.72 million) Series I funding round led by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, alongside existing shareholders. The capital is earmarked to accelerate technical development and expansion of C2FO's global platform, particularly into emerging markets to boost jobs and economic opportunities for MSMEs. This investment follows IFC's strategic partnership with C2FO to develop a Nationwide Working Capital Platform across Africa, starting in Nigeria, expected to launch later in 2025 and unlock tens of billions in annual financing for African MSMEs. The post-money valuation for this round was $854.03 million at a price per share of $11.18. C2FO has significant traction, having delivered more than $400 billion in risk-free capital since inception, including a milestone of $1 billion in daily funding in January 2025. In 2024, it provided over $13 billion in funding to more than 20,000 businesses in developing nations. The company was recognized as SME Financier of the Year-North America by the SME Finance Forum, managed by IFC, about seven months prior to the round. The IFC investment underscores C2FO's role in inclusive growth, with operations emphasizing transparency and efficiency over traditional financing. |
| Feb 2022 | Series H | Third Point Ventures (lead); Vista Credit Partners; Mubadala | $140M | - | C2FO is a Kansas City-based fintech platform providing working capital solutions through early invoice payments and dynamic supplier finance, connecting suppliers to buyers and funders globally. It enables businesses to access capital faster than traditional banking, supporting customers in over 175 countries and 75 currencies as of 2021. The company closed a $140 million equity funding round on February 1, 2022, led by Third Point Ventures, with participation from Mubadala Capital Ventures and Vista Credit Partners, bringing total institutional funding to $431.5 million. Proceeds support expansion of product suite, including new card products and funding sources. In 2021, C2FO achieved record growth, enabling $54.7 billion in funding to businesses worldwide, a 57% increase from 2020, with $18.9 billion in Q4 alone. Over 46,000 customers received funding, up 30% year-over-year. It directed $1.95 billion to over 1,000 minority- and women-owned businesses, a 30% rise from prior year, with such firms using the platform three times more frequently than others. Post-round traction continued: in 2022, suppliers received $78 billion in funding, up 42% from 2021, with $36.7 billion in H1 alone (65% YoY growth). C2FO has cumulatively provided over $262 billion since 2010, averaging $1.5 billion weekly in 2022, accelerating payments by about 32 days on average. By March 2026, lifetime funding surpassed $500 billion across 180+ countries, serving over a million businesses with zero credit loss claimed. |
| Aug 2019 | Series G | SoftBank Group (lead); Temasek; Union Square Ventures | $200M | $1B | C2FO operates the world's largest online marketplace for working capital, connecting buyers and suppliers to enable early invoice payments at dynamically priced rates using proprietary algorithms. The platform serves over 300,000 businesses across 173 countries, matching more than $1.2 trillion in accounts receivable and payable, and facilitates over $1 billion in weekly funding. In August 2019, C2FO completed a $200 million funding round led by SoftBank Vision Fund, with participation from existing investors Temasek Holdings and Union Square Ventures. Nahoko Hoshino from SoftBank Investment Advisers joined the board post-investment. The capital infusion aims to accelerate technology development, international expansion, and access to working capital for small and medium-sized enterprises beyond large multinationals. CEO Sandy Kemper highlighted the company's strong unit economics, customer satisfaction, and global growth as key to attracting the investment, which occurred rapidly without a formal pitch deck. SoftBank saw alignment with its vision for de-risking working capital availability worldwide, positioning C2FO as a potential global exchange for liquidity to boost company and economic productivity. The investment marked one of the largest for a Kansas City-based startup and reflected SoftBank Vision Fund's aggressive deployment in fintech and supply chain innovation, alongside bets like Greensill in early payments. |
