With Infinicept, software companies can deliver a tailored experience to customers while often generating as much revenue from payments as they do from their software.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Infinicept said it currently has more than 250 software, banking and fintech customers in 25 countries, including WorkWave in field services, Modernizing Medicine in healthcare, and ParTech in the restaurant industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe opportunity in front of us is enormous, and we\u2019re going to invest intelligently and aggressively to meet the needs of our customers,\u201d said Deana Rich, co-founder and co-CEO of Infinicept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur customers need the ability to get payments up and running on their own terms, without having to do all the work themselves. While others try to lock-in customers with templated solutions, Infinicept puts software companies in control of their payments experience \u2013 and their payments future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The funding round is the latest element of Infinicept\u2019s ongoing partnership with Mastercard that includes participation in the card network\u2019s Start Path program, which provides support to startup companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInfinicept\u2019s technology now supports acquirers and payment facilitators with the critical tools to help businesses around the world manage payments,\u201d said Zahir Khoja, executive vice president of Merchant Solutions and Partnerships at Mastercard. \u201cMastercard\u2019s technology and scale, with partners such as Infinicept, is helping our larger acquirer ecosystem support businesses around the world to accelerate growth, modernize transactions and ensure businesses have the tools to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Infinicept did not disclose the amount of the funding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Infinicept announced this week that it had completed a new funding round led by card brand Mastercard and investment firm MissionOG.
