In short: OpenPayd CEO Iana Dimitrova says the company is targeting a Nasdaq listing by the end of 2026 and aims to launch services for U.S. customers by April 2027. The proposed merger with Titan Acquisition Corp. still requires regulatory and shareholder approvals. OpenPayd says listing proceeds could support expansion and acquisitions.
Payments infrastructure company OpenPayd is targeting a Nasdaq listing by the end of 2026, with plans to use the move to support a U.S. launch and pursue acquisitions. For people who hold crypto and want to use it in everyday commerce, the news points to continued investment in the less visible plumbing that connects digital assets with conventional payment networks. It does not, by itself, announce a new way for consumers to pay.
A public listing is still in progress
OpenPayd’s proposed combination with Titan Acquisition Corp. would take the company to Nasdaq under the ticker OP. Chief Executive Iana Dimitrova told CoinDesk she expects the transaction to close this year, while noting that the process still depends on regulatory steps and approval by Titan shareholders.
The deal was announced earlier this year and remains subject to its closing conditions. That makes the year-end target a plan, not a completed listing. If it goes ahead, access to public-market capital could give OpenPayd additional resources for its growth strategy. The company is also considering a private placement ahead of the merger.
OpenPayd reported $73 million in revenue for the financial year ended April 2026, compared with $57 million a year earlier. It reported $13 million in EBITDA and a $2.8 million net loss, which the company said reflected one-time costs tied to the proposed business combination.
Preparing to serve U.S. businesses
The company aims to begin serving U.S. customers by April 2027. As part of those preparations, OpenPayd brought MSB USA Inc. and its 43 state money transmitter licenses into its group. Those licenses strengthen its ability to build a presence across the country, while the launch date remains a target.
OpenPayd provides financial services to businesses, including accounts, foreign exchange and domestic and international payments. Its platform also supports movement between traditional currencies and stablecoins. The company works with firms in digital assets and trading, among other sectors, and describes its role as providing the infrastructure those businesses can build on.
For crypto users, the practical connection is indirect. Better connected payment systems may make it easier for businesses to handle funds across currencies and payment rails. But OpenPayd is not announcing a consumer wallet, checkout service or direct crypto shopping option in this plan.
Acquisitions could add capabilities faster
Dimitrova said OpenPayd is looking at potential acquisitions that could bring additional licenses or technology into the business. Buying established capabilities could help the company enter markets or add services faster than developing everything internally. A Nasdaq listing could provide capital as well as publicly traded shares that might be used in transactions or partnerships.
The opportunity depends on execution. The merger has to close, the U.S. launch still needs to be delivered, and acquisitions would need to strengthen the platform in ways customers value. OpenPayd has described its growth ambitions, but the timeline and results are not guaranteed.
For the wider crypto economy, these plans illustrate how adoption relies on more than blockchain networks alone. Moving value between digital assets and familiar payment systems also calls for business accounts, compliance coverage, currency conversion and reliable settlement. Infrastructure firms are competing to make those connections work across borders and at scale.
Using crypto for everyday shopping
OpenPayd’s announcement is about business payment infrastructure, while Amatoshi helps people buy products from around the world and pay with cryptocurrency. The two serve different roles in the broader effort to connect digital money with real-world commerce. For shoppers, the useful measure is whether payment options keep expanding while access remains private and straightforward.
