Capifly Finishes Successful $1M Pre-Seed Funding Round

Jordan-based Capifly has announced a successful $1 million pre-seed funding round. In addition, the tech startup is also preparing to launch a $10 million non-dilutive capital facility to coincide with its recent expansion into Saudi Arabia.

Capifly unlocks value in the digital economy by offering a proprietary credit scoring technology across a wide range of sectors, including SaaS, gaming, enterprise software, and internet-based virtual goods. The company is rapidly becoming a leader in providing non-dilutive capital — a style of funding that doesn’t require giving up equity or ownership.

Capifly’s CEO and co-founder, Dunya Bashiti, said, “Our vision positions Capifly at the forefront of the internet’s GDP growth. Our unique technology isn’t just for our use; we’re gearing up to underwrite debt for other financial institutions, solidifying Capifly’s key role in the digital era”.

Funders — including Oasis500, BLDR Ventures, Ahli Fintech, Joa Capital, and various angel investors from Jordan and the KSA — have backed Capifly’s growth and ongoing MENA expansion. According to Ahmed Jaradat, Capifly’s CTO and co-founder, the investors’ belief in Capifly’s vision and technological strengths has been invaluable. “The journey is just beginning, and their continued support propels us forward”.

Capifly’s ambition doesn’t stop with Middle Eastern expansion. The company’s long-term strategy includes growth across pivotal emerging markets for Islamic financing, with a particular focus on Southeast Asia, where Capifly has already gained a foothold through using Malaysian registration.

The MENA virtual goods market is currently valued at over $15 billion and is estimated to grow by another $10 billion before 2025. The addition of non-dilutive capital from players like Capifly means the market could soon grow at an even greater pace than is currently forecast.
