#5 on @LinkedIn's Top Startups in Chicago 2026 ✶✶✶✶
Built by a team that grew 4x this year, and powered by customers who trusted us early.
Thank you to our team, our customers, our partners, and the city we call home. We're just getting started.

I’ll be on the Money20/20 stage in Las Vegas next week with Stuti Pandey from @PanteraCapital.
📍 October 20th, 4:40 PM @ The Intersection Stage
We’re talking about two things getting cheap at the same time: cognition, thanks to AI, and settling money, thanks to stablecoins.
When both get close to free, where does the value in payments end up?
Stuti’s view is that it moves away from the rails and toward regulated trust, data, and distribution.
I’ll bring the view from inside @CoinflowLabs, a company running this in production right now.
A merchant accepts payment via card, Venmo, ACH, PIX, you name it. Under the hood, we settle in #stablecoins.
The merchant never sees it. Neither does their customer. Both get the outcome they desire faster and more securely than ever.
Let’s keep the conversation going after. If you’ll be at #Money2020USA, DM me, and we can find time.

Innovation is built. Growth comes from who you build it with.
Coinflow 4x'd our team in the past year, with 50+ of us at our River North HQ. Some even packed up and moved to this great city to join our team. Chicago is home.
We're honored to be named a Top 100 Finalist for the 25th annual Chicago Innovation Awards, alongside innovators like Abbott, Letter AI, United Airlines, and many more building across the region.
The People's Choice Award is up to you, #Chicago. Vote for Coinflow: chicagoinnovation.com/nomina…

Most PSPs treat certain payment methods (and certain merchants) as an afterthought.
Coinflow meets you (and your customers) where you are.
Last month’s product releases proved that.
Here's what we built:
💳 Payment rails upgraded: PayPal and Venmo Pay-ins are live, vaulted payments enable faster repeat purchases, and Apple Pay now supports wallet payouts and saved cards. All backed by chargeback protection across most major rails.
🌍 New markets, new channels: Merchants can now accept payments via WooCommerce, receive Canadian EFT payouts, send crypto withdrawals, and onboard sub-merchants programmatically.

Ticketing has quietly become one of the most complex corners of payments.
Real-time settlement, marketplace resale, and chargeback patterns in the ticketing industry don't behave like typical commerce. Modern payments infrastructure is crucial for any ticket company to grow.
Coinflow's Anurag Vuthunuri and Steven Cook are hosting Interchange, a private dinner in New York City that brings together a small group of leaders from across the #ticketing industry to compare notes on what's working and what's next in product strategy.

Companies like @raincards and @CoinflowLabs have been solving the same problem from different angles for a while now.
Different entry points leading to the same finish line: money that moves instantly and securely, without the friction this industry has endured for decades.
On September 14th, we’re bringing the teams together during MoneyLIVE North America to discuss where this is all going over cocktails and food at the iconic @GibsonsSteak.
If you're in #Chicago for #MoneyLIVE (or you just live here and want in on the conversation) request an invite below. Spots are limited.

Stablecoins are infrastructure. This room proved it.
On July 29, 2026, nearly 200 builders, investors, and operators packed into Coinflow HQ for the first-ever Chicago Stablecoin Day, co-hosted by @brale_xyz, @CMT_Digital, and @zerohashx.
Three core takeaways stood out:
→ Stablecoins are already running commerce in verticals nobody expects — remittances, agriculture, loyalty, even fantasy sports. Six early-stage teams proved it live on stage.
→ The legitimacy question is over. A live product launch from Brale, the CFO's perspective on stablecoin rails, and a room full of institutions building here made that clear.
→ Chicago is not watching from the sidelines. It's building the next layer of financial infrastructure the same way it built the last one.
& we caught it all on camera.
🎥 Full video only on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/watch?v=EdbZoNo5…
Thanks to everyone that made it out to Chicago Stablecoin Day.
Stay stable. See you next year!

No single company should decide how agents pay.
We've joined @raincards' Agentic Payments Alliance — alongside @Visa, @Mastercard, @circle, and 20+ other founding members — to help define how AI agents authorize, settle, and move money.
The future of agentic payments is being built on Coinflow rails.

We don't just build in Chicago. We build with Chicago. And today, Chicago is taking notice.
Coinflow is honored to be a finalist for @1871tech's 2026 Momentum Awards in the CityLIGHTS category, recognizing the companies redefining what's next for Chicago.
This one belongs to the merchants who trust us with their payment rails, the partners who build alongside us, and the community that's cultivating our success.
We're proud to play a role in Chicago's next generation of innovation alongside fellow nominees like @aeropay, @ChowbusOfficial, @FingerprintJS, and Noto.
Public voting is now open through August 19. If you're as bullish on next-gen payments as we are, we'd appreciate your vote!

Great staying stable with you, @CoinflowLabs @CMT_Digital @zerohashx

Stablecoins are infrastructure. SAY IT BACK. 🗣️
The rails already powering remittances, marketplaces, gaming, cross-border payments, and the next generation of agentic commerce are quietly going mainstream while most of the world isn't looking.
Yesterday, Chicago left zero doubt about where this category is heading. 📈
Nearly 200 builders, investors, operators, and community leaders packed our HQ yesterday for the first-ever Chicago Stablecoin Day—co-hosted by @brale_xyz, @CMT_Digital, and @zerohashx.
Impactful keynotes.
A panel that got real.
The debut of Brale's ION Protocol.
Live demos from early-stage builders.
A room full of the people building the next generation of money movement.
The stablecoin breakout moment, happening in real time. Right here in Chicago.
To everyone who showed up, shared your ideas, met a new friend, and toasted on our rooftop — thank you. You made it real.
Stay stable, #Chicago.

Meet your moderator for July 29. 🎙
@elle_leemay spent years as an investor at @recvcx evaluating category-defining companies from the other side of the table—long before the rest of the market caught on.
Now, as Head of Partnerships & Growth at Coinflow, Elle is bringing her expertise to Chicago Stablecoin Day.
Elle joins @bpmilne (@brale_xyz), @SirDigitalDan (Coinflow), Mark Daly (@zerohashx), and @samiam2194 (@CMT_Digital) to discuss the past, present, and future of #stablecoins.
Crypto winter.
The GENIUS Act.
Stablecoins as core infrastructure.
What comes after CLARITY.
Her job isn't to keep the peace. It's to push past the talking points and get to what these four actually believe.

There are two things we do really well in @chicago.
We build & we celebrate each other. 🫶
Coinflow opened our doors for Chicago Tech Week and hosted Chicago Builds: AFTER PARTY—the nightcap to Chicago Builds: Future of Money, presented by @landon20s, @drivecapital, and @Paul_Hastings.
Rooftop views at golden hour, a DJ set that carried into the night, custom cocktails, and our brand new mural on full display.
Founders, investors, traders, and operators packed our HQ. Energy, innovation, and investment in the same room.
To everyone who showed up: thank you for filling our space with that energy.
The people building the future of money aren't somewhere else. They're here. ✶✶✶✶
