Trustt Secures $4.8M to Expand AI-Powered Banking Platform

Trustt, a financial technology company formerly known as Novopay, has secured $4,800,000 in investment capital.

The Bangalore-based firm focuses on modernizing the banking sector in India, leveraging an AI-powered SaaS-based Core Banking Platform.

This funding round marks a strategic step in the company's expansion efforts to broaden its market presence and enhance its technological offerings.

The company's platform currently facilitates millions of consumers in India to remit money, withdraw funds, and make payments through its established merchant network.

Beyond consumer services, Trustt's technology powers core banking operations for several innovative banks across the country.

Its stated vision is to democratize banking, making it accessible, affordable, and simple for all individuals in India, particularly aiming to serve the "next Billion" unbanked and underbanked population.

The newly acquired capital will be strategically deployed to accelerate Trustt's growth initiatives.

Plans include developing a larger retail network, expanding its portfolio of products and services, and extending its AI-powered core banking technology to a greater number of financial institutions.

This investment underscores confidence in Trustt's model and its potential to further disrupt the traditional banking landscape.

Trustt is supported by existing investors such as Vinod Khosla, founder of Sun Microsystems, and IDFC.

This latest funding infusion is expected to strengthen the company’s infrastructure and capabilities, enabling it to pursue its ambitious objective of making comprehensive banking solutions available to a wider segment of the Indian populace, fostering financial inclusion and innovation in the market.
