New Stack is thrilled to see Fluid named one of Forbes' 100 Startups to Watch in Asia! Their innovative B2B payments solution is making waves, serving thousands of SMEs in Singapore and Malaysia in just 1.5 years.

About Fluid:

Did You Know? Over 70% of B2B trades are conducted on credit terms. Yet, many suppliers struggle to support this, leading to lost business opportunities.

Introducing Fluid—a true GAME CHANGER. With just a tap, Fluid instantly finances your B2B purchases within 10 seconds. Based in Singapore, Fluid is a cutting-edge B2B Buy Now Pay Later solution, designed to help suppliers—both traditional and marketplace platforms—finance buyers’ purchases right at the point of checkout or when negotiating contractual terms. By replacing traditional B2B payment methods like invoice factoring, which involve outdated and cumbersome processes, Fluid revolutionizes how payments are handled.

Fluid seamlessly connects to suppliers' accounting systems, enabling instant underwriting of B2B payments. This offers a win-win scenario: buyers enjoy better payment terms, while suppliers unlock cash flow stuck in accounts receivable. Fluid integrates effortlessly into marketplaces and suppliers' ecommerce websites/apps, ERP or accounting systems, providing the payment flexibility that empowers B2B buyers to secure their purchases on credit terms or installments.

The Result? Increased basket sizes and an influx of new buyers for suppliers. What sets Fluid apart is its unmatched consumer-grade experience and the ability to facilitate high-velocity trade, distinguishing it from traditional digital lenders or invoice financing companies.
