Zynk Labs secured $5 million in a seed funding round. The firm stated it will utilize the additional funds to enhance its payment channels and bolster its liquidity framework.

Hivemind Capital spearheaded the round. Additional participants were Coinbase Ventures, Alliance DAO, Transpose Platform VC, Polymorphic, Tykhe Ventures, and Contribution Capital.

Zynk is creating what it refers to as the financial infrastructure for immediate worldwide transactions.

The aim is to eliminate the necessity for prefunded accounts and free up trapped capital in international transactions.

In conventional banking, businesses usually need to pre-fund accounts several days prior to processing payments. This delays international transfers and immobilizes important funds.

Zynk’s framework employs a hybrid system that accommodates both fiat currencies and stablecoins, enabling real-time settlement pathways across various regions.

Zynk’s platform presently accommodates USD, EUR, AED, INR, MXN, and PHP.

Prashanth Swaminathan, co-founder and CEO, stated, “Access to prefunding has turned into a barrier in cross-border payments. We're overcoming that barrier. Liquidity ought to flow as freely as information."

Zynk's approach integrates liquidity straight into its framework. This indicates that partners are not required to hold local accounts in every country. Instead, money transfers immediately between channels.

The infrastructure of the company accommodates traditional payment methods as well as blockchain-enabled transactions. Stablecoins, cryptocurrencies linked to assets such as the US dollar, are essential in Zynk’s framework.

In contrast to fluctuating cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, stablecoins preserve a consistent value. This enables organizations to move money securely and effectively between countries.

The firm is convinced that this technology can unlock billions in stagnant liquidity for businesses and payment providers.

Zynk’s initial usage statistics indicate strong interest. Since its discreet launch in April, the platform has experienced a 70 percent increase in growth each month.

Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer Manish Bhatia says, “When I worked on Amazon Pay’s technology, I saw how real-time settlement was always the missing piece. Zynk is finally making that possible — without prefunding.”
