Toqio, a London, England-based fast-growing fintech SaaS provider, announced that it closed €20 million in funding to become the platform of choice for creating new fintech solutions.
The round was led by AlbionVC, with participation from Aldea Ventures, as well as previous investors Seaya, Speedinvest, SIX FinTech Ventures, and angel investors, including Leandro Sigman, Board Member at Endeavor Spain.
The financing includes €18.7 million in Series A funding and a €1.3 million grant from the Centre for the Growth of Industrial Technology (CDTI), a state organization in Spain that promotes technological development.
With this funding, Toqio will expand throughout Europe, and it recently announced senior appointments in London and Madrid, increasing to over 100 in the past year.
Eduardo Martinez Garcia, CEO & Co-Founder of Toqio, said: “After rapidly growing our team and entering the Spanish market, we’ll now be broadening our focus within Europe, including expansion into France and Germany. This new funding round will enable us to keep evolving and delivering on our vision: we aim to become the world’s premier fintech SaaS platform, giving our clients the ability to create, customize, and launch bank-grade digital finance solutions, enriched by our marketplace of reputable and trusted partners.”
