The Tapi payment system, which is based in Argentina, has raised new financing for $22 million.
The mentioned money was received by the Argentine company following the results of the Series A financing round. The payment system intends to use these funds to realize its intentions aimed at stimulating the expansion of activities in Mexico. The corresponding statement was made by Tapi co-founder and chief executive officer Tomas Mindlin during a conversation with media representatives.
The specified company specializes in processing payment transactions for large Latin American consumer platforms such as Mercado Pago and the Lemon cryptocurrency exchange.
