Payment technology is undergoing the biggest transformation since the rise of credit cards. Real-time payments, embedded finance, digital wallets, global settlement rails, alternative underwriting, and AI-powered fraud prevention are redefining the future of money movement.
Attack Capital, a YC-backed AI + fintech venture studio and investment fund, gives accredited investors exclusive access to early-stage payment solutions companies, including YC-backed startups, infrastructure innovators, cross-border payment networks, merchant services disruptors, and enterprise-grade payments platforms. Through our hybrid model as a VC fund, venture builder, and fintech investment partner, investors gain exposure to the fastest-scaling category in modern financial services.
Global payments represent one of the largest and fastest-growing sectors in fintech. With over $3T in payments revenue projected by 2030, investors who allocate early gain asymmetric exposure to structural growth, AI transformation, and the modernization of financial infrastructure.
