New York City-based HIFI, which provides API infrastructure for stablecoin payments and settlements, raised a $37M Series A led by Left Lane Capital (Brian Danga/The Block)

The funding follows HIFI's role in DTCC's July tokenized-asset trades and a September Visa partnership for stablecoin-funded payouts.

HIFI, a New York-based fintech, has secured $37 million in Series A funding to expand its stablecoin payment and tokenized market infrastructure. The round was led by Left Lane Capital, with participation from Antler, Arcanum Capital, Exitfund, and Side Door Ventures. This marks HIFI's first priced funding round. The company, founded two years ago with a team of 35, specializes in an API platform enabling businesses to move value across various systems, such as stablecoins, bank rails, and card networks, through a single integration.

HIFI is registered as a money services business and collaborates with existing banks rather than attempting to replace them. The platform has processed over $227 million in stablecoin payments across 6 million transactions on Polygon since January 2025. Investors are optimistic as cross-border stablecoin flows surged 77.5% to $220.3 billion in a year, driven by business adoption.

HIFI recently executed a live on-chain repo trade using tokenized U.S. Treasuries and joined DTCC's first production trades of tokenized U.S. securities. In September, HIFI announced a partnership with Visa to expand money movement and card capabilities using its stablecoin settlement platform, starting with payouts to over 4 billion Visa cards worldwide.
