Tuna offers customization services, plugins, and SDKs to enable fast integration with multiple payment providers and implement anti-fraud strategies. The platform targets businesses that need agile adaptation to customer payment needs and fraud prevention. Tuna counts customers such as Zé Delivery, Riachuelo, ClickBus, and Reebok. The company was founded by Alexander Tabor, Paul Ascher, and Juan Pascual and operates as Tuna Pagamentos Ltda. Tuna recently secured funding to strengthen its operations and prepare for a Series A. The new capital will be used to expand the team and enhance operations. Tuna builds a no-code payments product that enables merchants to A/B test credit-card processors and anti-fraud providers in real time and make objective routing decisions. The founders—Alex Tabor, Paul Ascher and Juan Pascual—started the company in 2019 after working together on the engineering team at Peixe Urbano. Tuna’s platform integrates with VTEX, Magento and WooCommerce and guarantees that provider swaps are based on holistic performance metrics such as approval rates rather than fees alone. Over the past year the company added 12 customers and saw revenue grow 15%; its customer list includes the Brazilian fashion chain Riachuelo. The startup plans to use the new funding to build out its team and grow outbound customer success and R&D. Management intends to first show traction in payments optimization and facilitator performance in Brazil before expanding to Mexico, Colombia and Argentina.
