SAO PAULO, March 7, 2024 - CloudWalk, Inc. ("CloudWalk" or the "Company"), a Brazilian fintech pioneer and creator of the InfinitePay brand, today announced that it achieved total revenue of $320.5 million in 2023, a 41% increase year-over-year. Amidst a challenging macro environment for startups, the Brazilian unicorn reported a net income of $22.3 million, with its revenue run rate approaching $400 million.

"The year 2023 was an extraordinary chapter in CloudWalk's journey, characterized by a unique combination of hyper-growth and profitability, industry-leading innovations, and a steadfast long-term strategic vision," said Luis Silva, founder and CEO of CloudWalk.

During 2023, CloudWalk significantly expanded its InfinitePay platform by adding a range of new tools and services, such as credit, invoice management, sales and inventory management, and instant payment, among others. With this strategy, the company witnessed its active merchant base surge to over 1.1 million by year-end, representing a threefold growth compared to 2022.

The highlight of CloudWalk's 2023 accomplishments was the rapid adoption of "Tap to Pay" technology, allowing merchants to use a smartphone to accept contactless payments, whether with physical cards or digital wallets. "As the first Brazilian company to offer tap-to-pay on both iOS and Android devices, we quickly became the market leader. Our massive increase in InfinitePay customers this year is just the proof of the pudding," noted Luis. "In 2023, our clients saved over $150 million without needing to purchase a POS machine for card payments."

In January 2024, CloudWalk announced its expansion to the U.S., starting in New York City, San Francisco, and Austin with an app called Jim.com, which allows merchants to instantly process and receive payments via smartphones. Jim.com brings together the power of Artificial Intelligence (acting as the seller's financial assistant), Instant Payment, and Tap to Pay – three major trends in the global financial market. Furthermore, CloudWalk has plans to launch the same solution in the South East Asia and Middle East markets.

"This strategic move marks our first step towards building a global payment network. We remain dedicated to our mission of delivering the most innovative financial solutions to entrepreneurs and businesses worldwide and have never been more excited about what lies ahead," concluded Luis.
