Caecilia Chu and the long memory of a rejected loan
Before YouTrip became a way to spend across borders, Caecilia Chu watched her father struggle to borrow money. A failed startup, a friendship formed in Boston, and a habit of listening to customers turned that memory into a business.
Moreta
Moreta (Moreta Pay) is a Y Combinator S24 fintech building a mobile wallet that lets international travelers, expats and digital nomads pay local merchants by scanning QR codes across Southeast Asia and Latin America - using their own currency, at real exchange rates, without needing a local bank account. It connects to national QR networks like Indonesia's QRIS, Thailand's PromptPay and the Philippines' QR Ph so a Western visitor can pay at street stalls and cafes the same way a local does.
Spring in Africa
Spring in Africa is a Nigerian-rooted fintech that lets people and small businesses send, receive, and hold money across borders in both fiat and crypto. It began as Wallet.ng, grew into Wallets Africa, and in 2023 launched Spring, a multi-currency wallet that pairs an instant account number, cashback, and payment links with Ethereum and stablecoin transactions shown in plain USD. Backed by Y Combinator (W19), Michael Seibel, Microtraction, Samurai Incubate, and Mozilla, the company has processed millions of dollars a month for tens of thousands of consumer and business accounts.
dtcpay
dtcpay is a Singapore-headquartered, regulated payments company that lets merchants, consumers and financial institutions move money in stablecoins as easily as in dollars. Founded in 2019 as Digital Treasures Center by Alice Liu and Band Zhao, it runs a real-time swap engine that converts stablecoins to fiat at the moment of payment, so a shopper can pay in USDC while a merchant is settled in Singapore dollars. The company holds a Major Payment Institution licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore plus licences and registrations in Hong Kong, Australia, the United States, Canada and a Luxembourg EMI licence covering the European Economic Area. In January 2025 it dropped volatile cryptocurrencies entirely and became stablecoin-only. Its product line spans in-store POS+ terminals, online checkout, payment links, multi-currency wallets, a Visa Infinite "Digital Treasures Card", corporate cards and stablecoin-as-a-service APIs for institutions. dtcpay raised a US$10M Series A led by Vertex Ventures Southeast Asia & India in March 2026, bringing total disclosed funding to roughly US$26.5M.
