A heartfelt congratulations to Deep Singh, Vikram Kotibhaskar and the entire CrediLinq.Ai team on securing their $8.5M Series A investment led by Citi! This landmark round not only validates CrediLinq.Ai’s pioneering work in AI-powered B2B embedded finance but also underscores a broader vision we at Fintech Nation have long championed: 𝗔𝘀𝗶𝗮’𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱-𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝗮𝗦 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗴𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲.

CrediLinq.Ai’s API-first embedded finance solutions-enabling seamless access to working capital for SMEs across e-commerce, logistics, and procurement platforms-are solving a universal pain point: cash flow fragmentation. 

For Boleh Ventures (Fintech Nation’s ecosystem fund), this milestone reinforces a core thesis: Asia’s fintech innovators are uniquely positioned to build globally relevant SaaS models. The region’s complex, cross-border trade ecosystems, coupled with its digital-first SMEs, create fertile ground for solutions that transcend geographical boundaries. Credilinq’s ability to embed finance into enterprise workflows-from Southeast Asia’s booming e-commerce markets to the Middle East’s logistics hubs-exemplifies this potential.

Citi’s investment is more than capital-it’s a validation of CrediLinq.Ai’s institutional-grade compliance, risk frameworks, and cross-border interoperability. By integrating Citi’s treasury and liquidity solutions, CrediLinq.Ai can now empower SMEs with faster, more cost-effective financing while helping corporates optimize supply chain resilience. This collaboration also opens doors to Citi’s vast network of multinational clients, further cementing CrediLinq.Ai’s position as a global embedded finance enabler.

When Boleh Ventures first partnered with CrediLinq.Ai, we saw a team relentlessly focused on democratizing access to capital through technology. Today, as they onboard enterprises like Amazon, Lazada and TikTok Shop, that vision is becoming reality.
