Airwallex has secured $330 million in new capital through a Series G funding round that values the global financial platform at $8 billion, representing a valuation increase of roughly 30% since its previous raise six months earlier. The round was led by Addition, with participation from T. Rowe Price, Activant, Lingotto, Robinhood Ventures, and TIAA Ventures. The new funding will support Airwallex’s plan to scale its United States presence, accelerate hiring, advance its artificial intelligence capabilities, and expand its global financial infrastructure.

The company announced that San Francisco is now its second global headquarters, complementing an existing base in Singapore. Airwallex will allocate more than one billion dollars from 2026 through 2029 to expand its United States operations. The company intends to double its United States headcount to more than four hundred employees over the next year. It is also expanding its San Francisco office footprint to support continued growth.

Airwallex reported strong financial momentum in 2025. Annualized revenue surpassed one billion dollars in October, rising ninety percent year over year. Annualized transaction volume reached more than $235 billion, doubling from the prior year. Approximately half of the company’s global customer base now uses multiple products across its platform, reflecting increasing adoption of its global accounts, payments, treasury, and spend management offerings.

Airwallex has also continued expanding its regulated footprint, gaining new licenses and local capabilities across markets including France, the Netherlands, Israel, Canada, Korea, Japan, New Zealand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Brazil, Mexico, and the United Arab Emirates.

The company has begun rolling out specialized artificial intelligence agents designed to automate complex, multistep financial workflows. These agents will support capabilities such as expense submission, policy verification, and procure-to-pay operations. Airwallex stated that hundreds of purpose-built agents will be deployed across the platform, enabling businesses to operate more efficiently while reducing manual processes and increasing control and accuracy.

Founded in Melbourne in 2015, Airwallex now has more than 2,000 employees across 26 offices worldwide and holds 80 licenses across major regions, including North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific. More than 200,000 businesses globally use Airwallex’s platform to power financial operations, facilitate payments, manage spend, and build financial products on its proprietary infrastructure.

KEY QUOTES:

“We believe the future of global banking will be borderless, real-time, and intelligent. Legacy providers are fundamentally incompatible with how modern businesses operate, and our investors understand that we’re pulling ahead in the race to define this category. We’re building a modern alternative, a single platform that powers global banking, payments, billing, treasury, and spend on top of proprietary financial infrastructure. This capital will accelerate our growth, extend our technical leadership, and strengthen our position in the U.S. and across key markets worldwide.”

Jack Zhang, Co-Founder And CEO, Airwallex

“Airwallex is reshaping the global business banking landscape. The traditional financial system wasn’t built for borderless businesses, and Airwallex is uniquely equipped to solve this challenge. With its global financial infrastructure, software and AI capabilities, the company is exceptionally well positioned to lead the future of global business banking.”

Lee Fixel, Addition

“As AI lowers software costs, infrastructure and data become the ultimate differentiator. Airwallex connects the full spectrum of a customer’s financial operations – money in, money out, and everything in between, giving our agents the contextual data to execute with precision. This proprietary visibility, built on our scalable financial infrastructure, is what powers agentic finance.”
