Central Asia-based platform serves 45,000 users and offers access to more than 13,000 securities across more than 26 stock exchanges worldwide
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, 20 October 2026 — Paidax, a Central Asia-based digital investment platform, has raised $1 million in funding with participation from DOMiNO Ventures, Philip Capital, White Hill Capital and Aloqa Ventures. The platform provides users with access to global stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), enabling them to invest in major international currencies.
Founded by Beksultanhozha Anuarov, Paidax combines access to global stocks and ETFs with investment education and social investing features, allowing users to follow other investors and learn from their strategies. The platform also offers tools that help users identify investment opportunities aligned with Islamic finance principles.
Paidax has grown to 45,000 users, with monthly trading volumes ranging between $7 million and $9 million. The platform provides access to more than 13,000 securities across more than 26 stock exchanges worldwide. With the new funding, Paidax aims to accelerate its growth, expand its user base, and strengthen its presence across Central Asia and beyond.
Paidax also offers curated investment strategies developed by experienced investors, alongside savings products denominated in multiple currencies. Built on the belief that access to financial markets should go hand in hand with financial education, the platform integrates investment tools, learning resources, and investor-driven insights into a single experience, aiming to help both first-time and experienced investors make more informed decisions and achieve their financial goals.
Yagiz Karadeniz, Managing Partner of DOMiNO Ventures, said:
“With more than 90 million people across its target markets, Paidax is addressing a significant opportunity to democratize access to global financial markets. We see tremendous potential for fintech innovation in Central Asia. What attracted us to Paidax is its ambition to combine accessibility, financial education, and a community-driven investment experience.
