Irish fintech Nomupay gets $40 million investment from SoftBank
Nomupay started operations in 2021 after buying licences from payments company Wirecard, which collapsed a year earlier in Germany's biggest post-war fraud scandal.
Nomupay has since raised $120 million, with the last round of $37 million in January valuing it at $200 million.
"We will integrate the Japanese payment methods that are provided by SoftBank, which means the rest of the world can now access Japan, and then we will jointly expand into other markets," Nomupay CEO Peter Burridge told Reuters.
Nomupay is a payment processor focusing on local and cross-border payments and operates in an industry dominated by the likes of Stripe and Adyen.
"We aim to be profitable by the end of the year," Burridge said.

Residents of older estates have voiced concerns over compensation and affordability of flats in the area. As home owners have diverse needs, experts said sensitivity and prudence is required if VERS is to adequately address the impact of lease decay.
