The latest input to the company’s funds totals to make Paidy a $91 million company. The corporate investor had participated in the fintech startup’s Series B round in July 2016 and Series C round in July 2018. The company has also secured $143 million from its previous funding round, as an extension of its Series C round.

Paidy enables its users to make transactions via email addresses and mobile phone numbers. The company also debuted buy now, pay later payments on Amazon Japan in November of last year.
