Pliant Raises $80 Million Series C to Open B2B Payment Infrastructure to AI Agents

Pliant, a global fintech specializing in highly modular B2B payment solutions, announced an $80 million Series C funding round led by Seaya Nova and Speedinvest, with participation from Illuminate Financial, Motive Partners and Molten Ventures. The investment will support Pliant’s continued expansion in the United States and Canada, prepare its entry into further international markets, and accelerate its AI roadmap as businesses connect AI agents directly to their financial infrastructure.

The funding follows three consecutive years in which Pliant has doubled its business and comes shortly after the company surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). Pliant employs more than 300 people across eight offices and processes billions of dollars in annual payment volume for businesses and partners across Europe and North America. Its customers span travel, insurance and AI-native companies, as well as banks, fintechs and software platforms building their own commercial payment offerings.

Pliant’s platform is built for a world in which AI increasingly runs business payments. The platform’s own AI agents help customers automate recurring finance work at scale. Third-party agents, from assistants like Claude and ChatGPT to a company’s own AI automations, connect to Pliant via Model Context Protocol (MCP) and embed payment workflows into a wide range of business processes. The new capital will go toward deepening the company’s capabilities across agentic payments and workflows.

“We built Pliant as an API-first, modular B2B payments platform from day one, and we have adopted AI deeply, in our product and in how we run the company,” said Malte Rau, CEO and co-founder of Pliant.
