Zynk, a financial infrastructure company focusing on global payments, has secured $5 million in a seed round led by Hivemind Capital. Alliance DAO, Coinbase Ventures, Transpose Platform VC, Polymorphic Capital, Tykhe Ventures, and Contribution Capital also participated in the funding round. Zynk removes liquidity requirements for payment companies and minimises liquidity operations, while enabling instant cross-border transactions. The company’s infrastructure currently supports currencies such as US dollar, the euro, and the Indian rupee, facilitating remittance providers, business-to-business payment platforms, and trading networks to grow without liquidity bottlenecks. “Liquidity should move as freely as information,” Manish Bhatia, Chief Technology Officer of Zynk, said. “The new capital will be used to expand Zynk’s corridor coverage, reinforce its compliance stack, and build partnerships with leading payment providers globally,” Prashanth Swaminathan, Co-founder and CEO of Zynk, said here on Tuesday. “We’ve been building the financial pipes that make global payments instant,” he said. “Access to just-in-time liquidity has become a moat in cross-border payments — and we’re breaking that moat. Our mission is to make liquidity as mobile as data, freeing capital and eliminating idle balances, pre-funding, and manual treasury operations,” he said. The startup was supported by startup incubator T-Hub. “The Zynk team’s global mindset and depth of expertise make them a great example of how Indian innovation can power the world’s financial backbone,” said Kavikrut, CEO, T-Hub.
