Connected! MetaComp is a Singapore-based fintech that enables global companies to conduct fiat and stablecoin cross-border transactions faster. 

  • They’ve just completed their Pre-Series A round with a total raise of $35M. 

Investor check. Their latest round was backed by Alibaba, Spark Ventures, existing shareholders, and other institutional investors. 

🗺️ Money moves

MetaComp is making it easier for companies with global supply chains to send and receive money — whether in crypto or fiat. 

  • Why it’s important now. With geopolitical tensions on the rise and the possibility of sudden tariff changes, it’s crucial that money not be lost in transit. 
  • According to MetaComp co-president Tin Pei Ling, stablecoins offer a way to achieve “almost instantaneous settlement” when the US dollar supply isn’t accessible. 

Some more detail. MetaComp is licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and has achieved full-year net profitability in 2025.

🪙 The ABCs of MetaComp

A pain point you don’t see often from big companies? Days-long transactions…waiting for money to hit their account. 

  • MetaComp’s StableX Network enables institutions to move, convert, and manage capital across fiat and stablecoin rails within a compliant and unified architecture. 
  • They built VisionX, a compliance system that monitors risk across fiat and blockchain ledgers to generate a unified risk rating.

⭐ The big plan

They’ll use the fresh funding to accelerate their StableX Network expansion across high-growth corridors in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. 

  • They’ll also be developing an Agent-Skills-Model Context Protocol architecture to support agentic payment and wealth services. 
  • Oh, and they’ve also mentioned that an IPO in a few years is in their plans.
