Current report

On April 9, 2025, Payoneer acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of PayEco the parent company of EasyLink Payment Co. Ltd. (now Payoneer Payments (Guangdong) Co., Ltd), a licensed China based service provider. The acquisition strengthens Payoneer’s global regulatory infrastructure and positions it to better serve China-based customers with enhanced and localized products and services.

Current report

Current report

Additional revenue streams include service fees, such as fees on inbound payments, and bank transfer fees when enterprise customers send payments directly to recipients who do not have an account with us. In most cases, revenue is recognized and collected upon the completion of the underlying transaction, although some amounts are settled through intermediaries.

Current report

Transaction costs were $165.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $13.1 million, or 9%, compared to $152.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an increase of $16.8 million in bank and processor fees, and $4.5 million in card network fees, reflecting an overall growth in transaction volumes. These increases were partially offset by a $5.7 million reduction in chargeback and operational losses. In addition, capital advance costs decreased by $3.2 million, largely due to cost efficiencies realized from funding the capital advances from corporate cash, versus the use of the Warehouse Facility which terminated in April 2025. Overall, the change in transaction costs for the period was in line with the increase in transaction volume.

Current report

Sales and marketing expenses were $235.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $23.4 million, or 11%, compared to $211.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an $11.5 million rise in spending on certain direct marketing initiatives, a $10.1 million increase in employee compensation, benefits and other employee-related expenses due primarily to a higher average employee headcount, and a $0.7 million increase in information technology expenses.

Current report

General and administrative expenses were $141.4 million for the year ended December 31,2025, an increase of $28.1 million, or 25%, compared to $113.3 million for the year ended December 31,2024. This increase was primarily driven by an $18.5 million increase in employee compensation, benefits, and other employee-related expenses due primarily to a higher average employee headcount, a $5.4 million increase in legal consultancy expenses, a $3.0 million increase in third-party consultancy expenses, a $1.0 million increase in information technology expenses, a $1.2 million increase in facilities-related costs, a $1.9 million increase in non-income tax reserves, and a $1.1 million increase in finance services. These increases were partially offset by a $5.0 million decrease in M&A related consultancy expenses, a $1.5 million decrease in donations, and a $1.1 million reduction related to the fair value adjustment of a liability related to our 2024 acquisition of Skuad.

Current report

Financial expense, net was $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a change of $0.6 million or 5% compared to $9.6 million in financial expense, net for the year ended December 31,2024. The change was driven by a $14.7 million loss on warrant repurchase/redemption and a $2.8 million gain from the change in fair value of the warrant liability recorded in the prior year period, neither of which recurred in 2025, which was largely offset by an $11.1 million reduction in corporate interest income as a result of lower average invested balances and lower interest rates, as well as a $2.4 million decrease on the exchange rate loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Current report

Income tax expense was $42.4* million for the year ended December 31, 2025,an increase of $24.1 million, or 132%, compared to $18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This change was driven by the following factors: (i) a $10.2 million decrease in U.S prior year tax benefits due to a favorable provision to return adjustment in the prior year period related to the deduction for income earned from foreign customers; (ii) a $7.0 million decrease in foreign deferred tax benefits primarily related to stock-based compensation and (iii) a $5.9 million increase in the Company’s provision for uncertain tax positions. The decreases in both U.S. prior year tax benefits and foreign deferred tax benefits were due to factors observed in the prior period that did not reoccur in the current period.*

Current report

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“the Act”) was enacted into U.S. law. The Act includes changes to corporate taxation including making permanent certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were previously set to expire on December 31, 2025. The Act did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate or deferred tax assets for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Current report

During the year ended December 31, 2025, cash flows related to Other current assets increased $47.2 million reflecting a $23.4 million federal income tax refund received in 2025 that did not occur in 2024, and a $23.3 million reduction in capital advance receivables due to lower amounts extended to customers and timing of collections.

Current report

Trade payables also contributed a $6.7 million increase due to payment timing near period cut-off. Additionally, other long-term liabilities increased $11.7 million driven primarily from an increase in the reserve for uncertain tax positions.

Current report

The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by a significant reduction in purchases of U.S. Treasury Securities and term deposits. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we were ramping up our interest rate hedging program and made significant initial investments in U.S. Treasury securities and term deposits, resulting in a net purchase of $1,802.0 million. In the current year, purchases of interest rate hedging instruments, U.S. Treasury Securities and term deposits, net of maturities, totaled $58.8 million, reflecting the ongoing maintenance of the hedging program.

Current report

In addition, cash used in investing activities decreased by $15.1 million, reflecting the difference in cash paid net of cash and customer funds acquired, of $33.1 million in relation to the acquisition of PayEco in 2025, compared to $48.2 million related to the acquisition of Skuad in 2024.

Current report

The decrease in cash used in investing activities was partially offset by an $18.7 million increase in cash used related to investments in property, plant and equipment of $18.7 million, primarily related to leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures associated with our new office lease in Israel. In addition, our capitalized internal use software increased approximately $8.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Current report

This increase was primarily driven by a $344.6 million rise in customer balances held on our platform. Additionally, cash used in financing activities in 2024 was impacted by $19.8 million paid in connection with the warrant redemption, and net debt repayments of $18.4 million related to the Warehouse Facility, both of which did not recur during 2025.

Current report

Partially offsetting these increases in cash provided by financing activities was a $36.1 million increase in stock repurchases, a $20.4 million decrease in proceeds received from the issuance of common stock under our stock-based compensation plan, net of taxes paid related to the settlement of equity awards, and a $10.3 million increase in collateral payments on interest rate derivatives, net of receipts during the year ended December 31, 2025 when compared to the prior year.

Previous report

In 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire a licensed China-based payment service provider to support Payoneer’s China business. In February 2025, we received the regulatory approvals in China required to complete the acquisition, which is expected to close in the first half of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and termination provisions provided for in the agreement. For more information on this pending acquisition, see Note 19 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous report

Investment in entities where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee and investment in joint ventures, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2022, we had a joint venture with assets and operations located in China. In January 2023, through our subsidiary Payoneer Research and Development Ltd., we acquired all remaining interests in the joint venture from other partners, and in February 2025, formally deregistered the entity. For the periods prior to full ownership and consolidation, our share in the results of operations is included as share in losses of associated company on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Previous report

Transaction costs were $152.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $29.8 million, or 24%, compared to $122.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, largely as a result of the 21% increase in volume, as well as from an increase in chargebacks and other operational losses of $5.5 million.

Previous report

decrease of $5.2 million in employee compensation, benefits and other employee-related expenses primarily due to a decrease in employee headcount.

Previous report

Sales and marketing expenses were$211.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of$15.2 million, or 8%, compared to $196.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven mainly by an increase of $11.9 million in expenditures on certain direct marketing efforts, an increase of $2.2 million in partnership commissions, and an increase of $1.2 million in information technology expenses.

Previous report

General and administrative expenses were $113.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $12.3 million, or 12%, compared to $100.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven mainly by an increase of $4.5 million in M&A related expenses, an increase of $3.5 million in third-party consultancy expenses, and $1.8 million in expense related to the fair value adjustment of a liability related to our 2024 acquisition of Skuad.

Previous report

Financial expense, net was $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a change of $38.5 million compared to $28.9 million in income for the year ended December 31, 2023. The change was primarily driven by a $14.7 million loss from the warrant repurchase and redemption transaction in 2024, as well as a gain on revaluation of warrant liabilities (prior to repurchase and redemption) that was $14.6 million lower in the current year period compared to prior year, as well as a $9.9 million increase in loss on revaluation of foreign currency balances.

Previous report

Income tax expense was $18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $20.9 million, or 53%, compared to $39.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by (i) a reduction in U.S. current tax expense of $3.1 million and a U.S. provision-to-return benefit of $11.8 million (specifically related to the 2023 tax return), both of which were related to a deduction claimed under U.S. tax law for income earned from foreign customers, and (ii) a reduction in foreign tax expense of $9.4 million for future deductions of certain share-based compensation expenses. These impacts were partially offset by additional expense for unrecognized tax benefits.

Previous report

On October 28, 2021, Payoneer Early Payments Inc. (“PEPI”), our wholly-owned second tier subsidiary and its subsidiary (the “Borrower”) entered into a multi-party Receivables Loan and Security Agreement (the “Warehouse Facility”) with, inter alia, affiliates of Viola Ventures. The objective was to provide access to external financing for our capital advance activity. See Note 14 and Note 26 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information. As disclosed in Note 14 and Note 26, the Warehouse Facility reached its scheduled revolving period termination date on October 28, 2024, and the Company has repaid all outstanding borrowings. The Warehouse Facility is set to be automatically terminated on April 28, 2025. After the expiration of the Warehouse Facility, the Company intends to finance capital advance activity internally.

Previous report

During the year ended December 31, 2024, cash flows related to Other current assets decreased $40.5 million, Other payables decreased $9.7 million, and Trade payables increased $9.5 million, in each case compared to the prior year period, all due to changes in timing of payments relative to period cut-off. Additionally, cash flows related to Other assets decreased $9.0 million from the prior period primarily related to $9.5 million of accrued interest on term deposits which we had not invested in the prior period. Note that each of these drivers are net of acquired Skuad assets and liabilities.

Previous report

This change was predominantly related to the net purchase of $1,166.8 million in investments in U.S. Treasury Securities and $600.0 million in term deposits, both related to customer balances held on our platform. In addition, our acquisition of Skuad represented a use of cash in the year, net of cash acquired, of $48.2 million. Also included in cash used in investing activities is $35.2 million related to derivative instruments purchased and $12.9 million in incremental investment in internal use software when compared to the prior year. The change was also impacted by a cash inflow in the prior year of $6.0 million related to our acquisition of the remaining interest in a joint venture, which did not recur. Additionally, customer funds in-transit at period-end were $51.7 million lower than the prior year period.

Previous report

Additionally, in 2024, we entered into a lease commencing after the balance sheet date, which is expected to necessitate lease payments of approximately $5.5 million annually for the first five years, and $5.0 million annually for five years thereafter, exclusive of fees and expenditures for construction and other related costs.

Previous wording

We primarily generate revenues when Payoneer customers use the funds in their Payoneer account to make a payment, make a purchase or to withdraw the funds to a financial institution. For our customers transacting on a B2B or DTC basis, we also in certain circumstances generate revenue when they receive funds, such as when they invoice a customer or collect payments via their webstore. Additionally, given the significant customer funds held on our platform and ongoing growth in those balances, and in light of the high interest rate environment in the U.S. and elsewhere, interest earned on customer funds held on our platform has been a significant source of revenue. Our long-term strategy is centered on growing the number of customers on our platform who fit our ideal customer profile, namely – those who are customers that have on average over $500 a month in volume and were active over the trailing twelve-month period, and on increasing the revenue we earn from each customer. We believe that successful execution of this strategy will drive revenue growth as (i) adding new customers who meet our ideal customer profile, improving retention, and increasing our product offerings to capture more wallet share will drive greater ad valorem volume of transactions processed through the Payoneer platform; and (ii) introducing new products and services and increasing customer adoption of additional products and services will improve our monetization of customers over time. Volume is one of the primary drivers for our revenue growth. See “Key Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information.

Previous wording

Since October 7, 2023, Israel has been at war with Hamas and Hezbollah, and exchanged attacks with Iran and other proxies of the regime. Despite the ongoing war, we have continued to operate our business and serve our customers around the world and, to date, our ability to support customers has not been materially impacted. We are monitoring the situation closely and benefit from our broad geographic footprint, partially outsourced operations model, and a robust business continuity plan. Additionally, our technology infrastructure has redundancy in place outside of Israel. Approximately 55% of our global employee base is located in Israel, including approximately 78% of our research and development resources. At this time, an insignificant portion of our Israeli workforce have been called to military reserve duty and we have contingencies in place to cover impacted roles and responsibilities.

Current wording

In October 2025, a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas entered into effect, to end a two-year long war between them that started on October 7, 2023. During the war, conflicts between Israel and Hezbollah, Iran and other proxies of the Iranian regime were involved as well. During the war, we continued to operate our business and serve our customers around the world and, to date, our ability to support customers has not been materially impacted. We continue to monitor the situation closely and benefit from our broad geographic footprint, partially outsourced operations model, and a robust business continuity plan. Additionally, our technology infrastructure has redundancy in place outside of Israel. Approximately 51% of our global employee base is located in Israel, including approximately 79% of our research and development resources, as of December 31, 2025. An insignificant portion of our Israeli workforce were called to military reserve duty and we have contingencies in place to cover impacted roles and responsibilities.

Previous wording

The evolving conflict is likely to continue to impact economic activity in the region and could impact revenues from customers located in Israel. Our revenue derived from customers based in Israel was insignificant for the year ended December 31, 2024 and is included within revenues from Europe, Middle East, and Africa within Note 20 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current wording

Our revenue derived from customers based in Israel have been immaterial and is included within revenues from Europe, Middle East, and Africa within Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous wording

The state of the ongoing conflict remains highly uncertain and could worsen or expand which could, in turn, further impact economic conditions in Israel and in the broader region. At this time, it is difficult to assess the impact the war may have on our future results of operations. Any further escalation, expansion, or prolonged continuation of the ongoing conflict has the potential to impact our operations as well as to negatively impact the broader global economy and may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Current wording

Despite the recent ceasefire, the volatility in the region is high, and the state of the conflict remains highly uncertain and could reignite, worsen or expand which could, in turn, further impact economic conditions in Israel and in the broader region. At this time, it is difficult to assess the impact a continuation of the regional conflicts may have on our future results of operations. Any escalation, expansion, or prolonged continuation of the conflicts has the potential to impact our operations as well as negatively impact the broader global economy and may have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations.

Previous wording

During 2022, a geopolitical and armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia, which developed into an ongoing war, resulted in economic sanctions on Russia, Belarus, and certain territories in Ukraine. We provide services to customers in Ukraine and in jurisdictions that are or may be impacted by these economic sanctions. We have developed and implemented a robust transaction monitoring program designed to comply with imposed sanctions and to monitor the impact the conflict may have on our results of operations. During 2022, we ceased to provide services to customers in Russia and have limited our payment services to Belarus customers. We have continued to provide services to customers located in Ukraine and our revenues in Ukraine have remained relatively stable. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, Ukraine and Belarus, combined, accounted for less than 10% of our revenue, of which Belarus accounted for less than 1% of our revenue, respectively. Further escalation of the conflict may have a material effect on our results of operations.

Current wording

The ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia resulted in economic sanctions on Russia, Belarus, and certain territories in Ukraine. We provide services to customers in Ukraine and in jurisdictions that are or may be impacted by these economic sanctions. We do not provide services to customers in Russia, and we have limited our payment services to Belarus customers. We maintain a robust transaction monitoring program designed to comply with imposed sanctions. Our revenues in Ukraine have remained relatively stable as a percentage of our business. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 Ukraine and Belarus, combined, accounted for less than 10% of our revenue, of which Belarus accounted for less than 1% of our revenue. Further escalation of the conflict may have a material effect on our results of operations.

Previous wording

Macroeconomic conditions, including geopolitical and other global events that impact consumer and business spending and behavior, such as, but not limited to, the interest rate environment, inflation, trade policies (including tariffs), local political instability, global health crises, supply chain dislocations, regional and other conflicts, including the ongoing war in Ukraine and Israel’s ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, and disruptions and instability and regulatory changes in the banking sector, as well as evolving changes to trade policies (including tariffs) particularly in the U.S, may impact our customers, providers, banking partners and relationships and ultimately the amount of volume processed on our platform which may affect our results of operations.

Current wording

Previous wording

During 2023, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised the target benchmark interest rate by 525 basis points to a high of 525 to 550 basis points by August 2023. Coupled with continued growth in customer balances, this drove a significant increase in the interest income revenue we earn on our customer funds. During 2024, the U.S. Federal Reserve cut the benchmark interest rate by 100 basis points to a target range of 425 to 450 basis points. While there remains uncertainty as to the timing and magnitude of future interest rate changes, we expect to see a negative impact on our revenue from declining interest rates over the medium-term. In response, as of the year ended December 31, 2024, we have invested a total of $1.8 billion of our customer funds in both available-for-sale debt securities and term deposits to reduce our sensitivity to declines in short term interest rates, and have purchased interest rate derivative contracts with respect to $1.9 billion in customer funds to provide a floor against the impact of interest rate declines below levels defined in the relevant interest rate derivative instruments.

Current wording

Although the timing and magnitude in interest rates remains uncertain, given recent interest rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve, we can expect and the market generally anticipates that interest rates will continue to decline over the medium term, which will negatively impact our interest income. In response, to reduce our sensitivity to declines in short term interest rates we have invested a total of $1.8 billion of our customer funds in both available-for-sale debt securities and term deposits as of the year ended December 31, 2025, and we have purchased interest rate derivative contracts with respect to $2.2 billion in customer funds to provide a floor against the impact of interest rate declines below levels defined in the relevant interest rate derivative instruments.

Previous wording

Continued Growth of Digital Commerce. We have continued to see growth in digital commerce, as businesses of all sizes increasingly look to access the global digital economy and as the market for goods, labor, and services becomes more global and more distributed. In 2022 and 2023, we saw e-commerce growth rates normalizing to pre-pandemic levels due to a combination of macroeconomic factors, including supply chain disruptions, inflation and higher interest rates, and consumers shifting spending preferences from goods to services, including travel, following the loosening of pandemic restrictions. In 2024, we have seen e-commerce growth accelerate, as macroeconomic conditions and consumer sentiment have improved. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, total volume increased by 21%, 11% and 8% on a year-over-year basis, respectively.

Current wording

Continued Growth of Digital Commerce. We have continued to see growth in digital commerce, as businesses of all sizes increasingly look to access the global digital economy and as the market for goods, labor, and services becomes more global and more distributed. In 2025 we have seen slower growth in e-commerce relative to 2024, due to more volatile macro-economic and trade conditions, softer consumer spending and weaker consumer sentiment. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, total volume increased by 9%, 21% and 11% on a year-over-year basis, respectively.

We also integrate our services into software platforms, including accounting software providers, and with banks and other local payment providers. These partnerships enable us to offer better service to our customers and to cost-effectively acquire new customers. Our ability to innovate and grow is dependent, in part, on our ability to maintain and grow our partnership base.

We will continue to make significant investments in both existing and new products and services, including for those customers who operate B2B and direct-to-consumer models. We remain focused on increasing our penetration in these markets through new customer acquisition and from driving increased adoption of these and other services, such as our card product.

Previous wording

As we meet more of the needs of our customers, we expect to grow the revenues we earn from customers and to drive improved retention. Our ability to continue to grow our revenues is dependent on our ability to continue to grow our customer base and to drive increased adoption of our B2B, Checkout, card products and other differentiated offerings.

Our customers are also impacted by the macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, both the global environment and specific regional or local factors. For example, trade policy and higher tariffs (as recently threatened or imposed by certain countries, including the U.S.) may increase the costs of cross-border trade.

Current wording

Our customers are also impacted by the macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, both the global environment and specific regional or local factors. For example, we believe that trade policy and the higher tariffs imposed in 2025 and in recent months by the United States and other countries have negatively impacted both consumer demand for tariff-sensitive products and business investment.

Previous wording

The majority of our revenues are generated from transaction fees, which vary based on the type of service the customer utilizes. Transaction fee revenue principally consists of revenue generated when customers use their funds, either to withdraw their funds from our platform to a local banking institution or to use the funds to make payments. We also in certain circumstances generate revenue when customers receive funds, such as when they invoice a customer or collect payments via their webstore or from other businesses. Some services, such as virtual commercial cards, typically generate higher transaction fees from a dollar of volume than if that same dollar was withdrawn to a customer’s bank account.

Current wording

The majority of our revenues are derived from transaction based fees on our customers' payment volume, which vary based on how the customers use the funds in their account. These fees are earned when customers withdraw their funds or use those funds to make payments. We also earn fees in certain instances when customers receive funds, such as through our invoicing services, or via their webstore activity. Some services, such as our virtual commercial card offering, typically generate higher transaction fees from a dollar of volume than if that same dollar was withdrawn to a customer’s bank account. We also generate revenue from non-volume-based products and services which are based on a fixed fee.

Previous wording

We generate significant revenues from interest earned on customer funds held on our platform. To a lesser extent, we generate revenue through the collection of fees, such as fees charged when payments are made into a customer’s account, and bank transfer fees, which are fees charged when one of Payoneer’s enterprise customers uses Payoneer to send a payment directly into the bank account of a small business or individual that does not have an account on our platform. The majority of our revenue is recognized and collected upon the completion of the underlying transaction. In some cases, revenues are collected through intermediaries. For more information on our revenue recognition policies, see note 2s. of our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Previous wording

Transaction costs mainly consist of fees paid to the banks, processors and networks that process payments to and from the Payoneer platform, costs to acquire currencies, card supply costs, losses related to certain of our services, and expenses related to the outstanding balance associated with the Warehouse Facility (for which the scheduled revolving period is now expired as described in greater detail below under “— Liquidity and Capital Resources”). These costs are net of any rebate programs with banks and processors, such as volume rebates. Transaction costs are primarily driven by volume and number of transactions and generally increase as volume and number of transactions increase, while certain of our products and services, such as our commercial card or checkout product, certain billing services and increases in flows in certain markets drive higher transaction costs.

Current wording

Transaction costs mainly consist of fees paid to the banks, processors and networks that process payments to and from the Payoneer platform, costs to acquire currencies, card supply costs, losses related to certain of our services, and expenses related to the outstanding balance associated with the 2021 Receivables Loan and Security Agreement (the “Warehouse Facility”, for which the scheduled revolving period expired in October 2024, while the agreement terminated in April 2025). These costs are net of any rebate programs with banks and processors, such as volume rebates. Transaction costs are primarily driven by volume and number of transactions and generally increase as volume and number of transactions increase, while certain of our products and services, such as our commercial card or Checkout product, and certain billing services in certain markets incur higher transaction costs.

Financial income (expense), net includes gains (losses) from foreign exchange fluctuations. We conduct transactions worldwide and settle accounts with our financial intermediaries in various currencies. Interest income (expense) from corporate cash and cash equivalents deposited in our accounts is also included under financial income (expense), net, which vary based on cash and cash equivalents balances, and based on market rates. In addition, as a result of the reverse recapitalization transaction we completed with FTAC Olympus Acquisition Corp. (“FTOC”) in 2021, we assumed public warrants that were exercisable for shares of our common stock. These warrants were repurchased and redeemed in full in September 2024 (Refer to Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere within this Annual Report on Form 10-K for details), but prior to repurchase and redemption were classified as a liability and remeasured at period end and the corresponding mark-to-market adjustment were included in financial income (expense), net.

Revenues were $977.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $146.6 million, or 18%, compared to $831.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase in revenue was generally in line with volume, which grew by $14.0 billion, or 21% compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in revenue was driven by an increase in SMB revenue, including $66.3 million from SMBs that sell on marketplaces, $47.0 million from B2B SMBs, and $13.7 million from SMBs selling DTC. This growth in SMB revenue was driven by continued adoption of our high value services, certain monetization initiatives, ongoing growth in high value regions, and growth in the number of customers on our platform. The remaining increase in revenues was driven by an increase of $26.2 million in interest income earned on customer balances resulting from modestly higher interest rates and an increase in customer balances held on our platform compared to the prior year period.

Current wording

Revenues were $1,052.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $75.1 million, or 8%, compared to $977.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase in revenue was generally in line with volume, which grew by $7.4 billion, or 9% compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in revenue was driven by an increase in SMB revenue, including $52.0 million from B2B SMBs, $33.3 million from SMBs that sell on marketplaces, and $12.5 million from SMBs selling DTC. Note that certain non-volume revenues, including those related to banking partnerships and FX, which were previously allocated to SMBs that sell on marketplaces have been re-classified to B2B SMBs to better reflect the customers generating those revenues. Accordingly, the year-over-year change is calculated on a restated comparative basis. This change had no impact on total revenue or volumes. The growth in SMB revenue was driven by certain monetization initiatives, continued adoption of our high value services, and ongoing growth in high value regions. This increase in revenues was partially offset by a decrease of $25.2 million in interest income earned on customer balances resulting from modestly lower interest rates, and partially offset by an increase in customer balances held on our platform compared to the prior year period.

Current wording

Other operating expenses were $165.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 3%, compared to $169.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by a $3.0 million reduction in third-party contractor expenses, a $3.0 million decrease in reserves related to ongoing regulatory matters, and a $1.9 million decrease in employee compensation, benefits and other employee-related expenses largely due to lower stock-based compensation expenses. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $2.1 million in information technology expenses.

Previous wording

Research and development expenses were $134.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $15.4 million, or 13%, compared to $119.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven primarily by an increase of $19.5 million in employee compensation, benefits and other employee-related expenses as a result of an increase in average employee headcount, a $2.1 million increase in information technology expenses, and a $1.7 million increase in third-party contractor expenses. This was partially offset by an increase of $9.2 million in the amount of payroll and third-party related costs capitalized as internal use software.

Current wording

Research and development expenses were $155.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $20.8 million, or 15%, compared to $134.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was driven primarily by a $11.3 million rise in employee compensation, benefits and other employee-related expenses due primarily to a higher average employee headcount, a $3.0 million increase due to restructuring expenses, $5.3 million increase in information technology expenses, $7.3 million increase in third-party contractor expenses, and a $1.3 million increase in facilities costs. This was partially offset by a $7.9 million increase in the amount of employee compensation, benefits and related expenses and third-party costs that were capitalized as internal use software, and a decrease of $1.2 million in third-party consultancy expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $47.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $19.5 million, or 70%, compared to $27.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in amortization of internal use software costs.

Current wording

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $65.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $18.3 million, or 39%, compared to $47.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher amortization of internal use software costs, consistent with increased internal-use software capitalized.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

As described in Note 3, the Company recognized an indefinite-lived intangible asset related to a payment license recognized in the PayEco acquisition. The indefinite-lived intangible asset is not amortized, but is tested annually for impairment in the third quarter, or sooner when circumstances indicate an impairment may exist. The impairment assessment begins with a qualitative evaluation to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If this threshold is met, then we are required to perform a quantitative assessment, which requires us to estimate the fair value of the license and compare that to its carrying value. The indefinite-lived intangible asset is considered impaired if the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The fair value of the asset is estimated using a discounted cash flow method. The discounted cash flow method, a form of the income approach, uses expected future operating results and a market participant discount rate. Estimation is inherent in calculating the discount rate to apply and involves the use of third-party specialists.
