BlockBeats news, December 9th—Airwallex founder and CEO Jack Zhang stated, “In 2018, Stripe offered to acquire us for $1.2 billion, when our revenue was only $2 million. The valuation was 600 times our revenue, and based on Stripe’s latest share price, I personally could have made over $2 billion. But the team declined. Now, we have raised $330 million, our valuation is $8 billion, and our annual recurring revenue (ARR) has reached $1 billion.” Previously, it was reported that Airwallex raised $330 million in its latest funding round, with a valuation of $8 billion. According to a statement released Monday, this valuation is approximately 30% higher than the previous round six months ago. The round was led by Addition, with participation from Activant, Lingotto, and TIAA Ventures.
