Recent Acquisitions
Current report
In February 2025, we entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the Agreement) to acquire the business of Sertifi LLC (Sertifi) for upfront cash consideration of $330.0 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments set forth in the Agreement, and contingent consideration of up to $10.0 million upon the completion or satisfaction of certain technical and commercial milestones by Sertifi, with an estimated fair value of $3.1 million on the date of acquisition. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid $5.1 million for post-closing adjustments. Sertifi is a vertical software and payments platform digitizing hospitality-specific workflows and associated payments. We paid the upfront cash consideration through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings from our 2024 Revolving Credit Facility. The acquisition of Sertifi was intended to accelerate our travel business and expand our offerings to support over 20,000 hotel locations globally.
Current report
See Note 10 - Business Combinations in our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details related to these acquisitions.
Current report
In February 2025, we announced a restructuring plan designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs and better align our workforce with current business needs, top strategic priorities, and key growth opportunities (collectively, the Restructuring Plan). In connection with the Restructuring Plan, we incurred restructuring and restructuring-related charges of $8.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, recorded within restructuring expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Restructuring costs during the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily consisted of cash expenditures for severance payments and related expenses of $6.3 million and non-cash expenditures related to acceleration of vesting of share-based awards of $2.4 million. As of December 31, 2025, the accrued restructuring liability was less than $0.1 million, which is included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Total costs incurred in connection with the Restructuring Plan were complete as of June 30, 2025.
Current report
In addition, we are expanding our payment processing capabilities to offer a more comprehensive solution to our clients. While this new capability is expected to be a source of future growth, it is characterized by a lower gross margin profile compared to our traditional, higher-margin products. We anticipate that the inclusion of this business mix will exert a moderate, downward pressure during the initial ramp-up phase on our overall consolidated gross profit margin percentage, even as it continues to contribute positively to our absolute gross profit dollars.
Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2025, our business mix continued to exert downward pressure on our margins, driven by growing share of domestic transactions and credit card usage in travel and B2B and by our new payment processing solution in Healthcare, travel and B2B, partially offset by ongoing optimization of payment costs. We may experience shifts in the type of revenue we earn (transaction revenue or platform and other revenues) depending on the nature of the activity of our clients and our clients’ customers on our platform.

Digital Transformation and Operational Focus
Current report
We are also executing a digital transformation initiative focused on enhancing our data, analytics, and systems. This includes investment in our data architecture, leveraging structured data across our distinct verticals to generate real-time insights, predictive capabilities, and innovative AI use cases for both our internal teams and clients. Our foundational data work is designed to enable enterprise-wide AI deployment, ensuring speed, accuracy, and maximizing long-term value through more efficient processes.
Current report
Furthermore, we are optimizing internal systems and tools by consolidating our vendor footprint and automating processes. These efforts collectively reinforce our commitment to driving productivity, optimizing investments, and streamlining operations, thereby enhancing our platform's overall capabilities and providing deeper insights for our stakeholders.
Current report
The Australian government reclassified India as a highest-risk (Evidence Level 3) student-visa assessment jurisdiction under its Simplified Student Visa Framework (SSVF), shifting India from Evidence Level 2 to the more stringent Evidence Level 3 category effective January 8, 2026. This reclassification was attributed to what the Department of Home Affairs described as “emerging integrity risks,” including concerns about non-genuine applications and fraudulent documentation within the student visa system. Indian student visa applicants are now required to submit more extensive documentation, including detailed financial evidence, authenticated academic records, proof of English language proficiency, and may be subject to additional background checks or interviews before a visa decision can be finalized. Some expected impacts to Australian universities include:
Current report
Expectation of longer student visa processing times, potentially extending from current medians to four–eight or more weeks, which could disrupt admissions and orientation schedules.
Current report
Increased administrative burden on international offices and recruitment staff to assist Indian applicants with enhanced documentation and compliance requirements.
Current report
Risk of a reduction in Indian student enrollments or delays in arrival, affecting tuition revenue and program planning.
Current report
Necessity for universities to adjust intake planning, including staggered start dates or expanded online coursework, to accommodate delayed visa issuance.
Current report
Potential for higher refusal rates requiring additional counseling and risk management for affected applicants.
Current report
Flywire could experience reduced transaction volumes and delayed payment flows from its Australian clients’ Indian student corridors due to slower visa processing times, increased application friction, and potential declines in enrollment. These factors could adversely affect our revenue growth in the Asia-Pacific education vertical and increase operational complexity associated with refunds, deferred intakes, and compliance-related payment adjustments.
Current report
In the U.K. as well, there have recently been significant modifications to the process and standards for issuance of international student visas which may reduce demand for international study and adversely affect our business. In November 2025, the U.K. budget confirmed that a levy of £925 per student per year of study will commence from August 2028, at the start of the 2028/29 academic year, for higher education institutions in England. All providers will be given an allowance of the first 220 international students per year not paying the levy, which may protect smaller, specialist providers from paying the charge. Of potentially more significance is the reduction of the U.K.’s Graduate Route post-study-work-visa from 24 to 18 months as taking effect for visa applications made after January 1, 2027. The change applies to bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and not to PhDs (which retain a 3-year option). All of these changes in UK visa policies for international students could potentially discourage international students from studying in the U.K. and have an adverse impact on our business.
Current report
After a period during which interviews and applications for student visas to study in the U.S. were temporarily suspended, in June 2025 the U.S. Department of State (DOS) resumed scheduling visa interview appointments for international students and exchange visitors while it considered new social media vetting measures. New student and exchange visitor visa policies, including the temporary pause and expanded vetting, could impact the amount of international students successfully enrolling as students in the U.S., which may adversely affect our revenue and results of operations. Some of these expected impacts include:
Current report
Requests for deferred admissions, increased student inquiries/concerns, and delays in expected enrollment;
Current report
Visa appointment cancellations, unavailability or delays in scheduling interviews as well as higher visa rejection rates - especially as to potential students from the countries that send the most students to the United States; and
Current report
Students pivoting away from study and research in the United States. According to some studies, the top five countries that international students and scholars have indicated they are turning to instead of the United States are: United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, China, and Germany. These European and Asian study destinations that are gaining in market share of student interest often carry lower tuition and related costs of living relative to the United States, which may result in lower volume of payments processed within our education vertical.
Current report
The expanded social media screening process to be applied by the DOS to student visa applicants establishes that, of those students seeking expedited appointments, priority should be given to those attending universities with lower international enrollment (15% or less). This change potentially disadvantages those seeking to study at more internationally diverse institutions and marks a significant departure from previous DOS guidance that prioritized students based on the start of their academic studies. Administrative processing issues, a new requirement that applicants provide DOS access to social media accounts, and the resource-intensive nature of the new screening requirements is expected to create longer wait times and processing delays. All of these factors – and other related uncertainties that will surface as the new standards are implemented – can contribute to a decline in international enrollment in U.S. academic institutions, which could adversely affect our business.
Current report
Impact of New H-1B Visa Fee Requirement
Current report
See discussion above under Impacts Resulting From Government Changes to International Student and H-1B Visa Policies regarding the U.S. government's announced plans to require employers to pay a $100,000 filing fee per H-1B visa petition to bring new H-1B workers into the U.S. This new requirement materially increases the cost of employing new foreign nationals in the U.S. The new H-1B visa fee does not apply to international students already in the U.S. looking to apply for a status change. The fee is not expected to apply to petitions filed before the effective date or to renewals. Flywire currently employs a number of specialized personnel under H-1B visas — primarily software engineers and product managers — whose skills are essential to maintaining and expanding our global payments platform.
Current report
The new regulation could potentially increase our annual personnel costs as existing H-1B holders become eligible for renewal and as we recruit new employees in technical and operational roles. While the overall financial impact is not yet determinable, the incremental costs could be significant if the rule remains in effect or expands to other visa categories.
Current report
To mitigate these potential cost increases, we are evaluating a combination of strategies, including:
Current report
Reallocating hiring and development activities to lower-cost jurisdictions where we already operate;
Current report
Investing in automation, AI-based solutions and process efficiency to reduce reliance on incremental headcount growth in the U.S.; and
Current report
Enhancing our domestic talent pipeline through university partnerships, internships, and remote-work arrangements to expand access to U.S.-based workers not requiring sponsorship.
Current report
We are also engaging through industry associations to monitor legal challenges and regulatory developments related to this rule and to advocate for more balanced immigration policies that support innovation and growth in the U.S. technology and fintech sectors.
Current report
Although these mitigation efforts may partially offset the impact, increased visa-related costs or restrictions could reduce our flexibility in hiring and allocating talent, increase our operating expenses, and slow the pace of product innovation - all of which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Current report
Impacts Resulting From U.S. Government Policy Towards Higher Education
Current report
In the U.S., the “One Big Beautiful Bill” contains a number of provisions with the potential to significantly change the landscape for financing undergraduate and graduate study and which could adversely affect the demand for higher education in the U.S. The One Big Beautiful Bill limits Pell Grant awards (which provide gift aid to low-income students), eliminates the Grad PLUS program, and sets new limits for graduate and professional students for Direct Unsubsidized Loans. The new bill also caps parent loans to finance undergraduate education, and changes student loan repayment options, among other modifications. Although most of these changes will not go into effect until July 1, 2026, so U.S. students entering or returning to college in the fall of 2025 were unaffected, the longer-term impacts of the bill may impact U.S. student enrollment in undergraduate and postgraduate programs and could materially and adversely affect our revenue and results of operations.
Current report
In addition, in October 2025 the current administration introduced a proposed policy initiative known as the “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” (Compact), which would condition certain federal funding and grant eligibility for U.S. universities on compliance with a new set of policy standards. These standards reportedly include tuition caps, modifications to international student enrollment, changes to admissions criteria, and governance-related certifications. While the proposal remains under review and subject to public comment, its adoption - whether in its current or modified form - could materially affect the operating environment for higher-education institutions in the United States.
Current report
Many of our U.S. universities and colleges rely on federal funding for research, student aid, and institutional support. If the proposed Compact is implemented, universities may adjust enrollment levels, particularly of international students, or redirect administrative resources to compliance efforts. Such developments could reduce cross-border tuition payment volumes, delay new client implementations, or lead institutions to reevaluate third-party vendor relationships. These effects could, in turn, moderate revenue growth and increase client concentration risk within our education vertical.
Current report
At this stage, the potential financial impact of the Compact cannot be quantified, as the proposal has not yet been finalized or enacted. Management continues to monitor the policy’s development and is engaging with industry associations and higher-education partners to assess potential outcomes. To mitigate exposure, Flywire is taking several proactive steps, including:
Current report
Diversifying our education client base internationally to reduce reliance on U.S. higher-education volumes;
Current report
Expanding into adjacent services (e.g., housing payments, student refunds, and education-related B2B flows) to offset potential domestic revenue headwinds; and

2023 Follow-On Public Offering
Previous report
On August 9, 2023, we entered into an underwriting agreement (Underwriting Agreement) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as representative of the several underwriters (Underwriters), in connection with the offer and sale of 8,000,000 shares of voting common stock, at a price to the public of $32.00 per share (the Primary Offering). In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, we granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares of common stock (the Option).
Previous report
The Primary Offering closed on August 14, 2023 and on September 12, 2023, the Underwriters exercised the Option in part and purchased an additional 500,000 shares of voting common stock at a price to the public of $32.00 per share (the Public Offering). We received $260.1 million in net proceeds from the Public Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $10.9 million and other offering costs of $1.1 million.

Recent Acquisition
Previous report
In November 2023, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of StudyLink for an estimated total aggregate purchase price of approximately $35.5 million, consisting of approximately $32.8 million in cash consideration, net of cash acquired and up to $3.9 million of contingent consideration, with an estimated fair value of $2.7 million on the date of acquisition. The contingent consideration represents additional payments that we may be required to make in the future dependent on the successful achievement of revenue, volume, cross-selling and engineering implementation milestones, a portion of which can be paid in the form of cash or shares of common stock, at our option, and is subject to exchange rate fluctuation adjustment between the U.S. Dollar and Australian Dollar. Additional payments in the form of shares of common stock will be made based on the continuing employment of a key employee; accordingly, the fair value of $2.4 million, approximately 84,000 shares of common stock, have been excluded from the purchase consideration. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we expensed $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in stock based compensation associated with retention of the key employee. StudyLink is an Australian-based SaaS education company that provides platforms to education providers to support their student admissions systems and processes, including features such as eligibility assessment, offer generation, recruitment agent and commission management and acceptance processing. The acquisition of StudyLink was intended to accelerate our growth in the Australian higher education market and enhance our value proposition to payers, universities and agents in the higher education ecosystem. StudyLink contributed $7.6 million and $1.4 million in platform revenue during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Previous report
In July 2022, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Cohort Go for an estimated aggregate purchase price of $23.1 million, which consisted of $17.1 million in cash consideration, net of cash acquired, $4.3 million in shares of common stock and up to $2.2 million of contingent consideration, with an estimated fair value of $1.7 million on the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, at each reporting date, the contingent consideration was remeasured and changes in the fair value resulting from a change in the underlying inputs were recognized in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Contingent consideration represented additional payments that Flywire was required to make which was dependent upon Cohort Go's achievement of specific post-acquisition milestones and was subject to exchange rate fluctuation adjustment between the U.S. Dollar and Australian Dollar. During the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we paid $1.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in contingent consideration based on Cohort Go's successful and timely achievement of contracted milestones. No additional contingent consideration is due or payable with respect to the Cohort Go acquisition. Cohort Go is an Australian-based education payments provider that simplifies the student recruitment process by bringing together students, agents and essential student services such as health insurance into one platform. The acquisition of Cohort Go accelerated the growth of Flywire's agent related revenue and contributed to our global expansion. Cohort Go contributed $14.5 million in transaction revenue and $9.3 million in platform revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024, $16.6 million in transaction revenue and $10.4 million in platform revenue during the year ended December 31, 2023 and $6.4 million in transaction revenue and $3.3 million in platform revenue during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Strong dollar-based net retention. For the year ended December 31, 2024, our annual net dollar-based retention rate was approximately 114%. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our annual net dollar-based retention rate was approximately 125%. For the year ended December 31, 2022, our annual net dollar-based retention rate was approximately 124%. We calculate the annual net dollar-based retention rate for a given year based on the weighted average of the quarterly net dollar-based retention rates for each quarter in that year. We calculate the quarterly net dollar-based retention rate for a given quarter by dividing the revenue we earned in that quarter by the revenue we earned from the same clients in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Our calculation of quarterly net dollar-based revenue rate for a given quarter only includes revenue from clients that were clients at the beginning of the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

While we have experienced significant growth and increased demand for our solutions over recent periods, we may continue to incur losses in the short term and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future. Our marketing is focused on generating leads to develop our sales pipeline, building our brand and market awareness, scaling our network of partners and growing our business from our existing client base. We believe that these efforts will result in an increase in our client base, revenues, and improved margins in the long term. To manage any future growth effectively, we must continue to improve and expand our IT and financial infrastructure, our operating and administrative systems and controls, and our ability to manage headcount, capital, and processes in an efficient manner. Additionally, we face intense competition in our markets, and to succeed, we need to innovate and offer solutions that are differentiated from legacy payment solutions. We must also effectively hire, retain, train, and motivate qualified personnel and senior management. There are also circumstances beyond our control which can materially impact our business that we need to respond to, including, but not limited to fluctuations in exchange rates. If we are unable to successfully address these challenges, our business, operating results, and prospects could be adversely affected.

In August 2024, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Invoiced for an estimated total aggregate purchase price of approximately $51.7 million, consisting of approximately $47.2 million in cash consideration, net of cash acquired and up to $7.5 million of contingent consideration, with an estimated fair value of $4.5 million on the date of acquisition. The contingent consideration represents additional payments that we may be required to make in the future dependent on the successful achievement of revenue, cross-selling, product and security and IT milestones. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we made a payment of contingent consideration of $1.1 million based on Invoiced's successful and timely achievement of the contracted milestones. Invoiced is a U.S.-based SaaS B2B company that provides accounts receivable software that automates all aspects of billing, collections, payments, reporting and forecasting within a single online platform. The acquisition of Invoiced was intended to accelerate our global expansion in our B2B vertical. Invoiced contributed $2.4 million in platform revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Our revenue is affected by several factors, including the amount of payment volume processed by us on behalf of our clients, the industry in which our clients operate, the currency in which payments are made and received, the method of payment and the number of payment plans initiated by our clients’ customers. For example, we recognize more transaction revenue as our clients engage in cross border payment flows which may increase or decrease depending on the industry in which our clients operate. We may experience shifts in the type of revenue we earn (transaction revenue or platform and other revenues) depending on the nature of the activity of our clients and our clients’ customers on our platform.

For example, we recognize more transaction revenue as our clients engage in cross border payment flows compared to domestic payments, which may increase or decrease depending on the industry in which our clients operate. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers.
Previous wording
Our operating results and operating metrics are subject to seasonality and volatility, which could result in fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and operating results or in perceptions of our business prospects. We have experienced in the past, and expect to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations in our revenue, which can vary by geographic corridor and vertical. For instance, our revenue has historically been largest in the third quarter driven by our education peak season. Some variability results from seasonal events including the timing of when our education clients’ customers make their tuition payments on our payment platform and the number of business days in a month or quarter. We also experience volatility in certain other metrics, such as transactions processed, total payment volume and payment mix.

Some variability results from seasonal events including the timing of when our education clients’ customers make their tuition payments on our payment platform and the number of business days in a month or quarter. For example, due to the overlap of China’s National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival in early October 2025, certain payments from our client’s Chinese customers that would typically be settled in the fourth quarter were accelerated into the third quarter prior to the start of the holidays. As a result, revenue that would ordinarily be recognized in the fourth quarter was instead recognized in the third quarter, distorting period-over-period comparisons and contributing to elevated third quarter results. Management does not expect this temporary shift in payment timing to have a material effect on overall annual results, but it may impact comparisons between affected quarters. We also experience volatility in certain other metrics, such as transactions processed, total payment volume and payment mix.

Impacts Resulting From Government Changes to International Student Visa Policies

Impacts Resulting From Government Changes to International Student and H-1B Visa Policies
Previous wording
Revenue from our education clients, which primarily includes clients in the United States, Canada, U.K., Europe, and Asia Pacific/Australia, is affected by several factors, including policies enacted by government organizations around the world that cap the issuance of international student visas. In January 2024, the Canadian government announced what at the time appeared to be a temporary intake cap on international student permit applications to stabilize new growth for a period of two years. This cap – intended to address Canada’s housing shortage, overburdened health systems, and rising costs of living – has reportedly reduced the number of international students coming to Canada by about 40% since implementation. Building on these changes, the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced in January 2025 that new study permits for international students will be reduced by 10% from the 2024 target of 485,000 to 437,000 in 2025 and 2026. When first instituted by the IRCC, the cap initially excluded students enrolled in master’s and PhD programs, but recent reports indicate that the 2025 and 2026 study permit intake cap will include master’s and doctoral students. Additionally, in November 2024, Canada ended its Student Direct Stream (SDS) program for expedited international student visa processing, and international students applying to study in Canada no longer need to prepay tuition to apply for a study permit. These limitations have resulted in a corresponding reduction in payment flows, which had an adverse effect on our business in the fourth quarter of 2024 and which we anticipate will continue to impact our Canada revenues in 2025.

In November 2025, the IRCC announced that it expects to issue up to 408,000 study permits, including 155,000 to newly arriving international students, as outlined in the 2026–2028 Immigration Levels Plan, and 253,000 extensions for current and returning students. This number is 7% lower than the 2025 issuance target of 437,000 and 16% lower than the 2024 issuance target of 485,000. As of January 1, 2026, master’s and doctoral level students enrolled at a public designated learning institution in Canada will not need to submit a provincial or territorial attestation letter with their study permit application. When first instituted by the IRCC, the cap initially excluded students enrolled in master’s and PhD programs, but the IRCC more recently included master’s and doctoral students within the cap. Additionally, in November 2024, Canada ended its Student Direct Stream (SDS) program for expedited international student visa processing, and international students applying to study in Canada no longer need to prepay tuition to apply for a study permit. These limitations have resulted in a corresponding reduction in payment flows, which had an adverse effect on our business for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Similarly, since late 2023, the Australian government has taken similar actions to tighten international student visa rules, including an increase in the amount of minimum savings that international students would need to have in order to obtain a visa, raising the standards of the English language proficiency requirements for student and graduate visas, a 125% increase in the visa fee for international students, and the imposition of a ban for holders of visitor visas and students holding temporary graduate visas from applying for a student visa while in Australia. In August 2024, the Australian government announced the setting of a national planning level to apply from January 1, 2025 and which is intended to limit the number of new overseas student places available in Australia – including a ceiling of 270,000 international students for calendar year 2025. However, in December 2024, the government announced a change of course, instead implementing a system to introduce two categories of student visa processing: “high priority” and “standard priority”, with all international education providers to receive high priority processing up to 80% of their indicative international student cap. After reaching 80%, the providers will receive standard priority processing. These new Australian government policies, including university quotas, slower visa processing, higher fees, and stricter financial and language requirements, has had an adverse impact on our business in the fourth quarter of 2024 and we anticipate will continue to impact our Australian revenues in 2025.

Other governments where our client institutions are located, including in the U.S., may introduce measures from time to time to manage the growth of the international student population in their respective countries, which may have adverse effects on our business. Our U.S. market saw slower growth in the fourth quarter of 2024 due to shifting visa trends. In addition, there are reports that the new executive administration in the U.S. is likely to closely scrutinize applications for international student visas, adding to uncertainty around the number of students coming to the U.S. to study in the near future. Delays in issuances of visas or visa denials may discourage prospective international students from choosing U.S. institutions as places for study. The existing rules and any introduction of new rules further limiting the attractiveness of international study by the governments of countries where our client institutions are located has and is expected in the near term to continue to adversely impact the growth of our business in the applicable regions.

For example, the U.S. government’s recent announcement to impose a $100,000 filing fee per new H-1B visa could adversely impact demand for international students to attend our client institutions in the U.S. The new H-1B visa fee does not apply to international students already in the U.S. looking to apply for a status change.Our U.S. market saw slower growth for the year ended December 31, 2025, due to shifting visa trends. In addition, in 2025 U.S. policy shifts have prompted dramatic action to rescind student visas (including deportation of students), plan additional cutbacks to the volume of international student visa issuances and more closely scrutinize applications for international student visas, and to cut government support for higher education, adding to uncertainty around the number of students coming to the U.S. to study in the near future. Delays in issuances of visas or visa denials – which could be exacerbated by the recent U.S. government shutdown – may discourage prospective international students from choosing U.S. institutions as places for study. Recent proposals in Congress to tighten visa stay rules and to implement the “OPT Fair Tax Act” could further dampen demand among international students to study in the U.S. The existing rules and any introduction of new rules further limiting the attractiveness of international study by the governments of countries where our client institutions are located has and is expected in the near term to continue to adversely impact the growth of our business in the applicable regions. We expect these changes to U.S. immigration policy will continue to dampen demands for international study and adversely impact our revenue growth in the U.S. in 2026.

We have a history of operating losses and while we have experienced significant revenue growth in recent years and achieved profitability on a GAAP basis in prior quarters, we are not certain whether or when we will obtain a high enough volume of revenue to sustain or increase our growth or achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We also expect our costs and expenses to increase in future periods, which could negatively affect our future operating results if our revenue does not increase. In particular, we intend to continue to strategically invest in headcount, to further develop our solutions, including introducing new functionality, and to expand our marketing programs and sales teams to drive new client adoption, expand strategic partner integrations, and support international and industry expansion. Our operating results are also impacted by the mix of our revenue generated from our different revenue sources, which include transaction revenue and platform and other fee revenue. Changes in our revenue mix from quarter to quarter, including those derived from cross-border or domestic currency transactions, will impact our margins, and we may not be able to grow our gross margin adequately to achieve or sustain profitability. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers. We are addressing operating losses by making continued improvements designed to create operating efficiencies and a focus on cost discipline. We believe these improvements along with strong gross margins and cash flows from operations will help us achieve our goal of generating positive annual GAAP net income in the future.
Current wording
We have a history of operating losses and while we have experienced significant revenue growth in recent years and achieved profitability on a GAAP basis in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, we are not certain whether or when we will obtain a high enough volume of revenue to sustain or increase our growth or achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We also expect our costs and expenses to increase in future periods, which could negatively affect our future operating results if our revenue does not increase. In particular, we intend to continue to strategically invest in headcount and technologies and systems to improve operating efficiencies, to further develop and enhance our solutions, including introducing new functionality, and to expand our marketing programs and sales teams to drive new client adoption, expand strategic partner integrations, and support international and industry expansion. Our operating results are also impacted by the mix of our revenue generated from our different revenue sources, which include transaction revenue and platform and other fee revenue. Changes in our revenue mix from quarter to quarter, including those derived from cross-border or domestic currency transactions, will impact our margins, and we may not be able to grow our gross margin adequately to achieve or sustain profitability. In addition, the mix of payment methods utilized by our clients’ customers may have an impact on our margins given that our costs associated with certain payment methods, such as credit cards, are higher than other payment methods accepted by our solutions, such as bank transfers. In addition, we are expanding our payment processing capabilities to offer a more comprehensive solution to our clients. While this new capability is expected to be a source of future growth, it is characterized by a lower gross margin profile. We are addressing operating losses by making continued improvements designed to create operating efficiencies and a focus on cost discipline, including investing in automation and product development to further enhance our offerings with a focus on scale and productivity across all areas. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025 and continuing into the second quarter of 2025, we implemented a restructuring plan designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs and better align our workforce with current business needs, top strategic priorities, and key growth opportunities. We believe these improvements, our strong product portfolio, client retention and established product market fit along with strong gross margins and cash flows from operations will help us achieve our goal of maintaining positive annual GAAP net income in the future. As of the date of this report, we expect that our clients’ business and our business will continue to be adversely impacted, directly or indirectly, by the ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical issues. However, the extent of the ongoing impact of…

The increase in transaction revenue was primarily driven by growth in transaction payment volumes for the year ended December 31, 2024 from both our existing clients and new clients added during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. We experienced strong growth in transaction payment volume across most regions and verticals during the period, excluding Canada, which decreased primarily due to Canada’s international student permit applications cap introduced earlier in calendar year 2024. Transaction payment volume increased approximately 31% during the year ended December 31, 2024 to $23.2 billion compared to $17.7 billion during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our transaction payment volume outpaced our revenue growth during the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the increase in domestic transactions that have a lower average monetization rate. We experienced strong growth in transaction payment volume across most regions and verticals during the period, excluding Canada, which decreased primarily due to Canada’s international student permit applications cap introduced earlier in 2024. Transaction payment volume increased approximately 32.3% during the year ended December 31, 2025 to $30.7 million compared to $23.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Platform and other revenues was $81.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $73.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, an increase of $8.5 million or 11.6%.

The increase in payment processing services costs is correlated with the increase in total payment volume of approximately 26.4% over the same period. Our payment processing costs outpaced our total payment volume primarily due to our growing share of domestic transactions and credit card usage as well as our expanded payment processing capabilities that all have higher costs than other payment methods or payment solutions, respectively.

Benefit from income taxes was $1.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a provision for income taxes of $4.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $5.2 million or 123.8%. The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to a non-recurring benefit of $4.9 million relating to the release of a portion of our valuation allowance in the U.S. This release was due to taxable temporary differences recorded as part of the Invoiced acquisition which were a source of income to realize certain pre-existing federal and state deferred tax assets. The benefit is offset by income tax expense attributable to our foreign operations and U.S. state taxes. The income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to income taxes related to our profitable foreign subsidiaries and U.S. state taxes. Our effective tax rate was (55.9)% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to (96.8)% for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Current wording
Provision for income taxes was $7.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a benefit from income taxes of $1.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $8.9 million or 890%. The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2025, was primarily attributable to activity in our foreign subsidiaries and U.S. state taxes. The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to a non-recurring benefit of $4.9 million relating to the release of a portion of our valuation allowance in the U.S. In assessing the realizability of its deferred tax assets, we considered whether it was more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets would not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the generation of future taxable income. We have evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability and determined that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of the deferred tax assets, and as a result, a valuation allowance has been established against federal, state and certain foreign deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company will continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of this allowance. We believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months that sufficient positive evidence may become available to reach a conclusion that a portion of the valuation allowance may no longer be needed. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. The exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability that we are able to actually achieve. Our effective tax rate was 37.0% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to (55.9)% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Net cash provided by operating activities was $91.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $80.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase of $10.8 million in our net cash provided by operating activities was primarily related to a net increase in our operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions of $16.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net increase of $26.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by an increase in funds receivable from payment partners of $74.8 million, as a result of the timing of collections from our partners in the applicable period, partially offset by a decrease in funds payable to clients of $79.7 million compared to the prior year as a result of the timing of payments to our clients in the applicable period. The timing of collections from our partners will vary from period to period based on when our clients’ customer payment for a particular transaction is made, as well as the customer’s payment method which impacts the timing of settlement of the payment. The timing of payments to our clients will vary from period to period based on when our client’s customer payment for a particular transaction is made and when we are contractually required to remit such payment to our client. This net increase in cash provided by operating activities was also impacted by our operating cash flows from our net income (after adjustments for an increase in non-cash expenses of $9.9 million) which increased by $21.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the prior period, reflective of the growth in transaction payment volumes, from both our existing clients and new clients, an increase in interest income as a result of our higher cash balances and higher market interest rates, offset by increases in our costs and operating expenses, the largest of which was our payment processing services costs and an increase in losses from the remeasurement of foreign currency due to foreign currency intercompany loans and impact of fluctuations in exchange rates during respective remeasurement periods.
