\"White<\/p>\n

SaturnX, a stablecoin payment infrastructure platform headquartered in Dubai, has closed a $3 million seed funding round, led by global venture capital firm White Star Capital<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The round also saw participation from a consortium of strategic institutional investors, signalling strong market confidence in SaturnX\u2019s mission to modernise global value transfer.<\/p>\n

This funding accelerates SaturnX\u2019s expansion across key South and Southeast Asian payment corridors, including the Philippines, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Pakistan, strengthening its regulatory capabilities and enabling the development of enterprise-grade, API-first platforms purpose-built for stablecoin-powered cross-border payments.<\/p>\n

SaturnX offers a programmable, low-cost, and near-instant alternative to legacy remittance and B2B payment systems by leveraging stablecoins and decentralised financial (DeFi) liquidity. The company\u2019s core infrastructure pre-funds liquidity pools in high-demand markets and aggregates FX pricing in real-time, enabling seamless transactions across a smart routing network that spans the Gulf to South Asia corridor.<\/p>\n

Since its operational launch, SaturnX has facilitated over $250 million in transaction volume within just five months, underscoring both the demand for and resilience of its infrastructure.<\/p>\n

SaturnX\u2019s platform is designed with financial institutions and enterprises in mind. Through its developer-friendly APIs<\/a> and fully compliant architecture, the platform empowers partners to initiate, route, and settle payments with speed, transparency, and cost-efficiency all while meeting global regulatory standards.<\/p>\n

SaturnX\u2019s focus on underbanked and high-volume payment corridors is particularly strategic, tapping into regions with massive demand for efficient remittance flows and low-cost digital payment alternatives.<\/p>\n

Mirnas Brescic, CEO and founder of SaturnX,<\/strong> said, \u201cDespite considerable progress, cross-border payments are still expensive and slow. By offering a faster, cheaper, and programmable alternative, we\u2019re helping financial partners unlock better ways to move money, starting with the world\u2019s largest remittance corridors.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sep Alavi, General Partner at White Star Capital,<\/strong> said, \u201cWe\u2019re excited to back SaturnX at the forefront of a new payment infrastructure layer. They\u2019re operating in one of the most strategically important corridors globally, solving a massive pain point for cross-border remittances and B2B payments.\u201d<\/p>\n
