Speedchain secures $111 million in mixed debt and equity to expand construction-focused finance platform

Speedchain announced on Sept. 9, 2025 that it has closed a $111 million strategic financing package made up of debt and equity aimed at scaling its commercial card and expense management platform for the construction and project-driven industries. The debt portion was provided by Community Investment Management, a private credit impact investment manager, while a group of venture and strategic investors supplied equity.

Why it matters now

The financing comes as construction finance teams face ongoing challenges tracking receipts and reconciling costs across multiple job sites in real time. Speedchain’s platform promises project-level visibility and card controls that move expense tracking closer to the field, a change proponents say can reduce month-end surprises and speed decision-making on active jobs.

Deal details and who’s backing it

The financing combines a debt facility from Community Investment Management (CIM) with equity support from a group that includes GTM Fund, Village Global, TTV Capital, K5 Global, Tandem, and Emigrant Bank. Company leaders say the mix of capital is intended to fund faster customer growth and product work while preserving runway.

Planned use of funds

Speedchain intends to use the capital to accelerate its go-to-market strategy, advance product innovation, and expand nationally. Executives emphasize investments in integrations, AI features, and scaling commercial card programs for contractors and other project-based businesses.

Product capabilities and partnerships

The company’s platform offers end-to-end visibility and controls for project-level spending, including AI-powered receipt management, corporate expense processing, programmable card programs, and integrations with back-office systems. The Speedchain card program is issued through the Mastercard World Elite business network, pairing the company’s software controls with a global card network to capture rewards and merchant benefits.

Recent company moves

Alongside the financing, Speedchain added a veteran industry leader to its board and announced a new national partnership with a major construction trade association. Company leaders describe these moves as part of a broader push to bring modern financial tools to a sector they view as historically underserved by traditional fintech offerings.

Investor and partner perspectives

The debt provider framed its commitment as a bet on fintech that delivers measurable operational impact for firms that manage many job sites. Equity backers highlighted the platform’s ability to let field teams track job costing in near real time instead of waiting for month-end reconciliations. Investors and board members say the combination of modern card programs, AI-driven insights, and integrations can save time and enable more dynamic expense management for construction finance teams.

Market context

Construction is a large, project-driven market where spending happens across dispersed worksites and through a mix of vendors, subcontractors, and field purchases. The complexity of tracking those expenses has created demand for tools that connect frontline spending to back-office accounting quickly and accurately. Speedchain positions itself as a specialist platform built to bridge that gap.

What’s next

With the new capital and partnerships, Speedchain plans to broaden its national footprint, speed product releases focused on automation and AI, and grow commercial card adoption among contractors and project managers. Executives say the funds will be put toward sales expansion, product development, and operational scaling to support larger enterprise clients.

Press and contact line

The company listed a public contact number for press and inquiries. The financing announcement carried a source line indicating the release originated in Atlanta on the same date.
