## Company Overview

Mesh Connect (product name: Mesh) is the API infrastructure connecting 400 million+ users' crypto wallets to merchant checkout and financial services — often described as "Plaid for crypto wallets." The company raised $75 million in 2026 at a $1 billion valuation led by Dragonfly Capital, with $10 billion+ in monthly transaction volume routed through its API connections to MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, OKX, and other major wallet providers. Merchant integrations include PayPal, Shift4, and Revolut.

Mesh solves the crypto-to-merchant checkout problem: users holding crypto assets in self-custody wallets have no easy way to pay for goods and services that only accept card payments. Mesh's API allows merchants to accept crypto from any major wallet through a single integration, abstracting the complexity of multi-chain wallet connections and stablecoin settlement that merchants cannot practically manage individually.

The GENIUS Act regulatory framework advancing in the US Congress — which would clarify the legal status of stablecoins and authorize bank stablecoin issuance — is a direct tailwind for Mesh: regulatory clarity makes merchants more willing to add crypto payment acceptance, and Mesh's existing integrations with 400M+ wallet users position it to capture the resulting volume surge. Mesh is actively courting fintechs as distribution partners in 2026 to expand beyond direct merchant integrations into embedded crypto payment offerings.
