Paystand, a U.S.-based company that uses the Ethereum blockchain to enable business-to-business payments, has acquired Yaydoo, a Mexico-based accounts-payable company.

Both companies will continue to operate independently, but there are opportunities to cross-sell each product in different markets, Axios reported on Tuesday. Paystand operates in the U.S. and Canada, while Yaydoo does business in Mexico, Colombia, Peru and Chile.
In July 2021, Paystand raised $50 million in a Series C funding round led by NewView Capital – and including SoftBank’s SB Opportunity Fund as a participant. Yaydoo raised $20 million in a Series A round in August.
Paystand has its own bank network that allows companies to make zero fee payments using the Ethereum blockchain and cloud technology.
Yaydoo offers three products – Vendorplace , P-Card and PorCobrar – focused on business-to-business transactions.
