Jun 2022Series BTencent (lead); Gokul Rajaram; Guillaume Pousaz; Insight Partners; Block; Michael Vaughan$55MFlip is an Indonesia-based consumer payments platform enabling low-cost financial transactions including peer-to-peer payments with interbank transfers to over 100 domestic banks, international remittances to more than 45 countries, e-wallet top-ups, and business solutions like disbursements for payroll, refunds, and supplier payments. On June 14, 2022, Flip announced a $55 million Series B extension led by Tencent, with participation from Block (formerly Square), existing investor Insight Partners, and individuals including Guillaume Pousaz of Checkout.com via Zinal Growth, Gokul Rajaram of DoorDash/Coinbase/Pinterest, and former Venmo COO Michael Vaughan. This brought the total Series B to over $100 million, following an initial $48 million close in December 2021 co-led by Sequoia Capital India, Insight Partners, and Insignia Ventures Partners, with cumulative funding reaching $120 million since 2019. Flip had served over 10 million users by May 2022, up from 7 million in December 2021, and processed more than $12 billion in transactions annually as of June 2022. The company grew its team by 30% to over 400 employees from 300 in December 2021. Proceeds from the extension were allocated to expand engineering and product teams, develop new products and technologies for improved service quality, and accelerate business expansion. Flip positions itself similarly to Wise.com, which operates in Indonesia via PT Wise Payments Indonesia, targeting accessible financial services in a market with hundreds of companies using its enterprise disbursement and remittance products. The round reflects Tencent's increasing investments outside China amid domestic regulatory pressures, alongside other global fintech backers.

Founded by University of Indonesia alumni Rafi Putra Arriyan, Luqman Sungkar, and Ginanjar Ibn Solikhin, it holds a license from Bank Indonesia since 2016 and serves over seven million users processing transactions domestically and abroad, plus hundreds of SME and enterprise clients. In December 2021, Flip raised $48 million in a Series B funding round co-led by Sequoia Capital India (now Peak XV Partners), Insight Partners (its first Indonesia investment), and Insignia Ventures Partners, bringing total funding to $65 million following a 2020 Series A and 2019 seed both involving Sequoia and Insignia. The capital aims to accelerate business expansion, strengthen Indonesia operations, advance technology, and grow engineering and product teams. Flip has shown significant growth amid rising tech adoption in Indonesia, positioning as a leader in interbank transfers with seamless payments. The company cited Bank Indonesia data showing Indonesia's annual money transfer volume exceeding $2.2 trillion in 2020.
