MetaComp Expands Stablecoin Payment Infrastructure
Founded in 2018, MetaComp focuses on building a unified Web2.5 financial platform that integrates traditional banking rails with stablecoin networks. The company provides payment, treasury, and wealth management services to financial institutions, global enterprises, and ultra high net worth clients.
Its infrastructure combines fiat payment systems with digital asset rails, allowing organizations to move capital efficiently across borders while remaining compliant with regulatory frameworks.
The company reported that its platform processed more than $10 billion in payments and over the counter volume during 2025 across more than 13 stablecoins.
Key operational metrics include:
- More than $1 billion in monthly platform operations.
- Over $500 million in wealth assets managed through its client asset platform.
- More than 1,000 institutional and accredited clients globally.
MetaComp’s Client Asset Management Platform (CAMP) integrates payments, treasury management, and investment services into a single infrastructure.
StableX Network Targets Emerging Markets
The company plans to use the new funding to expand its StableX Network, a blockchain based platform connecting regulated financial institutions, stablecoin issuers, and payment partners.
Expansion will focus on Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America, regions where demand for fast and compliant cross border settlement systems is growing.
MetaComp said the network is supported by several proprietary technologies including:
- StableX Engine, which powers liquidity and settlement infrastructure.
- VisionX Compliance Engine, designed to improve regulatory monitoring.
- PayX and WealthX modules, enabling payments and investment services across fiat and stablecoins.
The funding will also support the development of Agent Skills MCP architecture, a system designed to power AI enabled Web2.5 payment and wealth services.
Licensed Financial Infrastructure in Singapore
MetaComp operates under licensing from the Monetary Authority of Singapore as a Major Payment Institution authorized to provide Digital Payment Token services and Cross-border Money Transfer services.
Through its affiliate Alpha Ladder Finance Pte. Ltd., the company also offers regulated investment and market services. Alpha Ladder holds both Capital Markets Services and Recognised Market Operator licences, allowing the platform to provide securities related and tokenized wealth products.
This regulated framework allows MetaComp to offer integrated payment and investment services across traditional and digital financial assets.
Investor Interest in Stablecoin Payments Grows
The latest funding round reflects increasing investor interest in stablecoin-based payment infrastructure, particularly in markets where traditional cross-border banking systems remain slow or costly.
MetaComp previously raised $22 million in a Pre A funding round in December 2025, which included investors such as Eastern Bell Capital, Noah, Sky9 Capital, Freshwave Fund, and Beingboom Capital.
The combined capital raise also comes amid expectations that the global stablecoin market could reach $2 trillion by 2028, according to projections from Standard Chartered.
Alibaba’s participation in the funding round is notable given that China maintains strict restrictions on stablecoin issuance, though reports suggest the company has been exploring deposit token technology for overseas transactions.
Tin Pei Ling, Co-President of MetaComp, said the company was built around the idea that future cross-border finance will combine traditional financial rails with digital asset networks.
CoinLaw’s Takeaway
I believe MetaComp is positioning itself right in the middle of one of the biggest shifts happening in finance today. Stablecoins are rapidly becoming a real alternative for global payments, especially in regions where traditional banking infrastructure struggles with speed and cost.
In my experience covering fintech and crypto infrastructure, companies that combine regulatory compliance with real world payment utility often gain strong institutional trust. MetaComp seems to be following that exact playbook by building licensed infrastructure while integrating fiat and digital assets into one system.
If stablecoins continue gaining traction globally, platforms like MetaComp could play a major role in reshaping how cross border payments and digital wealth services operate in emerging markets.
