How this list is built

Fintiqa reads every Fintechbits article and tags the ones that report a funding round, a strategic investment or a debt facility. This page lists those articles for the month, newest first, with the one-line summary taken from each article. It refreshes every hour.

These are reported events, not yet primary records: each rests on a Fintechbits article, and each article links to the announcement behind it. Amounts appear as the articles report them. We don't total them here, because a headline figure can include debt, tender offers or earlier rounds. Our edited round-ups, like September 2026, check and total them by hand.
