Singapore-based fintech firm Surfin Meta Digital Technologies has raised US$14 million in a new funding round, bringing its total funding to US$26.5 million.
The round was joined by Woori Venture Partners, Washington University in St. Louis, and Phillip Private Equity.
This follows an earlier US$12.5 million raise led by Insignia Ventures Partners in October 2024.
Surfin Meta said the new funding will support its expansion into additional markets and enhance its research and development efforts.
The company aims to develop a broader suite of intelligent digital financial services targeted at underserved populations.
Founded by Dr. Yanan Wu, Surfin provides digital financial solutions for unbanked and underbanked communities in emerging markets.
Its offerings span consumer lending, credit cards, payments, remittances, wealth management, and B2B services.
“We are proud to close our funding round with strong interest from well-known institutional investors that also stand testament to Surfin’s outstanding performance and potential to grow into a truly global fintech company.
We are very excited to work with Insignia, Woori, Washington University in St. Louis, and Phillips, and believe they will provide us with additional guidance and resources with which to take on this challenge.”
said Dr. Yanan Wu, CEO and Founder, Surfin Meta Digital Technologies.
Surfin currently operates in markets such as Indonesia, the Philippines, India, and Mexico.
The company says its competitive edge lies in building a scalable, cross-border technology platform and a transparent ecosystem of financial services tailored to local needs.
