Checker Raises $8 Million to Expand Unified Stablecoin Infrastructure for Institutions

Checker has raised $8 million in funding from Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd., Al Mada Ventures, and Framework Ventures, announced in a press release. The round also included participation from Bitso, Airtm, DFS Lab, Onigiri Capital, SNZ Capital, and Velocity, along with fintech operators from Stripe, Tala, and Flutterwave.

Checker provides financial institutions with a single API that connects to stablecoin and digital asset liquidity, cross-border payments, treasury, and credit services. The company's platform has processed $3 billion in transactions over the past year, serving clients such as Rail, Braza Bank, and Belo across 30 regulated institutions in multiple regions.

The funding will be used to expand Checker's global payments coverage and reduce reliance on traditional correspondent banking systems. The company also plans to build embedded borrowing and lending tools and launch AI-powered agents for treasury management, back-office operations, and predictive analytics.

Checker's network now supports 75 currencies, enabling institutions worldwide to access unified liquidity, payment rails, and fiat on and off ramps without integrating multiple providers.
