Miami-based Jeeves, which launched stablecoin-based payments earlier this year, raised a $110M Series C led by CoinFund, with participation from a16z and others

Bloomberg Maria Clara Cobo

Context & Ripple Effects

Jeeves began as a startup-expense-management provider, following its 2021 financing with a $180M Series C in 2022. Its move into stablecoin-based payments extends that finance workflow into payment rails rather than treating expense software as a standalone product.

The funding arrives as Miami-based payments infrastructure providers bundle crypto and stablecoin services for other payments companies. CoinFund leading, alongside returning investor a16z, gives Jeeves capital and investor support for that expansion.

First-order effects

  • Jeeves gains $110M to fund its stablecoin-based payments rollout, while CoinFund becomes the lead backer and a16z continues its investment in the company.

Second-order effects

  • Payment providers selling stablecoin capabilities to businesses face a more heavily funded Jeeves that can pair payment functionality with its existing expense-management focus.

Third-order effects

  • If finance platforms keep adding stablecoin rails to core business workflows, competition shifts from offering a standalone crypto service to controlling the broader spend-and-pay relationship with companies.

The trend: Business-finance software is converging with stablecoin payment infrastructure as providers seek to own both corporate workflows and the rails that settle them.
