MoonPay acquires AI finance platform Entendre

By Milan Rojan

MoonPay has acquired Entendre, an AI-powered finance operations platform, as the crypto payments company expanded its capabilities beyond payments into accounting, treasury management and financial operations automation for businesses operating in the digital asset ecosystem.

The acquisition has strengthened MoonPay’s push into what it describes as the “agentic finance” layer, enabling businesses to automate reconciliation, treasury and financial close processes through AI-powered agents.

According to MoonPay, the increasing adoption of stablecoins has created new operational challenges for finance teams managing transactions across multiple entities, currencies and blockchain networks. Entendre’s platform has addressed these challenges by automating accounting workflows and consolidating financial data across onchain and offchain systems.

Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO and co-founder of MoonPay, said: “Legacy software was built for manual workflows. The next financial system will be coordinated by humans and agents. If businesses are going to adopt stablecoins at scale, their finance operations need the same speed, context and automation as the payments themselves. Entendre takes us deeper into the agentic finance layer so businesses can operate in this new paradigm.”

MoonPay said Entendre’s technology is used by several digital asset firms to automate finance operations and reduce the complexity associated with managing on-chain financial activity.

The company noted that stablecoins have enabled businesses to operate globally from inception, creating a need for finance infrastructure capable of handling cross-border transactions, multiple payment rails and diverse currencies in real time.

Kareem Khattab, co-founder of Entendre, said: “We started Entendre because managing crypto finances was unnecessarily complex. Joining MoonPay allows us to accelerate that mission at a much larger scale and build the financial operating system for the internet economy.”

The acquisition has followed MoonPay’s broader expansion strategy across digital asset infrastructure and enterprise services as it seeks to support the growing adoption of stablecoins and onchain financial operations.
