Spade Raises $40M to Turn Messy Transaction Data into a Strategic Asset for Banks and Fintechs
"Spade takes a fundamentally different approach: rather than training models on noisy transaction data, the company built a proprietary database of verified merchant records and treats enrichment as a search problem, matching each transaction to a real business in real time."
"The platform delivers 99.9% coverage of US and Canadian merchants with greater than 99% accuracy at P99 latency under 40 milliseconds, performance that unlocks mission-critical use cases like authorization decisioning, fraud prevention, and real-time rewards attribution."
"As banks and fintechs race to deploy AI agents and automate complex financial workflows, the quality of underlying transaction data has become a board-level concern and the structured, verified intelligence Spade delivers sits at the center of that shift."
Spade addresses the challenges of processing financial transactions by creating a proprietary database of verified merchant records. This approach allows for real-time matching of transactions to businesses, achieving 99.9% coverage of US and Canadian merchants with over 99% accuracy. The platform supports critical use cases such as fraud prevention and rewards attribution, which traditional methods struggle to handle. Recently, Spade raised $40M in Series B funding, bringing total funding to $56.1M, to further its mission in the financial services sector.
