We secured $53M in Series B funding

We are thrilled to share that we raised $53 million in Series B funding.
This round of funding was led by Highland Europe with participation from LeftLane Capital, Palm Drive Capital, Endeavor Catalyst and Y-Combinator. The new round brings our total capital raised to date to $85 million.

Since our founding in 2021, we have been committed to building a trusted financial services platform for immigrant communities worldwide. Now, over 1 million customers trust us to move their money to over 20 countries.

We are also proud of a recent milestone: US$1 billion in monthly processed transaction volumes.

A Word From Our Lead Investors

Sam Brooks, Partner at Highland Europe, said: “LemFi’s mission to provide trusted, reliable access to financial services for immigrant communities has inspired an incredibly loyal customer base and has generated impressive growth over the past several years. In addition to the success in initial geographies, we are excited by LemFi’s continuing international expansion, given the extent of the global problem they are solving. Ridwan and Rian are fantastic leaders, and we are thrilled to partner with them and the LemFi team to help them scale and continue their growth into new markets.”

What’s Next?

Ridwan Olalere, co-founder and CEO of LemFi, said: “When we started building LemFi, we were told remittance had already been solved. But for too many people, it is still too slow, cumbersome, and expensive, with customers telling us that, in some instances, it is cheaper to send money from the US via Canada than directly to their families back home. By targeting the communities most in need, we’ve built LemFi into the go-to remittance service for one million people, supporting them in building wealth across 20 countries. We’re not stopping there: this new funding will support our mission to build the financial services hub for immigrants globally, from adding new features to expanding to new countries. We’re delighted to be partnering with Highland to help us scale LemFi into a fintech giant.”
