MX — a leader in data-driven finance and creator of the Money Experience category — recently announced it has raised $300 million in a Series C funding round led by a $150 million investment from TPG Growth with additional participation from new and existing investors including CapitalG, Geodesic Capital, Greycroft, Cota Capital, Canapi Ventures, Digital Garage, Point72 Ventures, and Pelion Venture Partners along with Regions Financial Corp.

The latest investment will be used for helping organizations everywhere automate the money experience — which means using aggregated and enhanced data to make interacting with money as intelligent and personalized as shopping on Amazon, streaming music on Spotify, or driving a Tesla.
MX helps organizations connect to the world’s financial data and turn raw, unstructured data into their most valuable asset to deliver powerful new experiences, increase top line growth, and build brand loyalty. And MX enhances financial data by cleansing, categorizing and most importantly adding additional metadata that empowers organizations to reduce fraud, approve loans faster, and help customers save and invest smarter. And MX leads the industry with the most secure, reliable, and direct API connections to the world’s top financial institutions and most advanced enhancement engine, using AI and machine learning to categorize transaction data with 98% coverage.
