Juspay, a Bengaluru-based payments infrastructure company, has successfully raised $50 million in a Series D follow-on funding round led by WestBridge Capital. This investment values Juspay at $1.2 billion and is intended to fuel its global expansion, strengthen its core payments infrastructure, and enhance its artificial intelligence capabilities. The funding round includes both primary capital for growth and a secondary component providing liquidity to early investors and employees, marking the second such event within a year. Juspay, founded in 2012, reported its first full year of profitability in FY25 with a net profit of ₹62 crore and an annualised total payment volume exceeding $1 trillion. The company serves major brands like Amazon (company), Walmart — Flipkart, Alphabet Inc., IndiGo, and Swiggy, and plans to expand its presence across Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Latin America, Europe, the UK, and North America. This development comes despite some former clients like Walmart — PhonePe, Razorpay, and Cashfree Payments cutting ties after Juspay obtained its own payment aggregator license.
