Neobanking startup Zolve raises $251 Mn in Series B round Founded in 2021 by Raghunandan G, Zolve offers immigrants an FDIC-insured US bank account and a credit card without requiring a Social Security number in the United States. Cross-border neobanking startup Zolve has secured $251 million in an equity and debt funding round led by Creaegis, with participation from HSBC, SBI Investment, GMO Venture Partners, DG Daiwa Ventures, and existing investors Accel, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sparta Group, and DST Global. This Series B round includes a $200 million warehouse line (debt) from Community Investment Management to fuel its growing credit portfolio across geographies. In October 2023, the company raised $100 million in a warehouse debt facility from US-based impact investor Community Investment Management (CIM). Zolve has bagged $406 million in equity and debt financing to date. This substantial investment comes as Zolve reaches the 750,000-customer mark, having facilitated the movement of over $1.2 billion. The firm claims that it became customer-level profitable in early 2024 and is on track for company-level profitability by the end of 2025. Zolve plans aggressive expansion into three key areas. Geographically, Canada is next, followed by the UK and Australia. The company will also expand its credit portfolio by launching auto loans, personal loans, and education loans. The firm aims to become a full-stack financial platform for global citizens, enabling seamless international money transfers, insurance, and investment products. This is the largest debt funding raised by an Indian-origin startup in 2025.
