MoonPay, a crypto payments company, today announced that it has acquired Entendre, an AI-powered finance operations platform built for companies that move and manage money on-chain.
According to the announcement, the deal is expected to improve how crypto and stablecoin businesses handle accounting and financial records using AI systems. MoonPay said the goal is to bring more automation into the “back office” of digital money systems, where most of the hard work happens after a transaction is made.
How Entendre simplifies crypto finance
Entendre is a platform that helps companies deal with complex financial work in the crypto world. It is used by firms like Polygon Labs, Thirdweb, Brale, Babylon Labs, Ostium, Courtyard, and DoubleZero.
These companies deal with large amounts of stablecoin and blockchain transactions every day. Instead of doing everything by hand, they use Entendre to track, sort, and organize financial activity across many wallets, systems, and accounts.
MoonPay said companies that use Entendre manage more than 30 financial accounts and process around 25,000 transactions every month. According to the platform, many of these companies also operate across several legal entities, which makes accounting more difficult.
Entendre helps reduce this pressure by automating about 93% of journal entries. It also cuts manual accounting work by more than half and helps finance teams close their books up to three times faster than normal systems.
Why the acquisition matters
The main problem Entendre solves is quite simple but very important. Moonpay explains that blockchains often show that money moved, but they do not explain why it moved or what it means for accounting.
For example, a single stablecoin payment can pass through wallets, exchanges, bridges, gas fees, invoices, or card systems. Each step affects accounting records in different ways. Without automation, finance teams must go through block explorers, spreadsheets, and accounting tools to piece everything together. This takes time and creates stress for growing companies.
Entendre reportedly fixes this by turning raw blockchain activity into clean accounting records. It does this through a full process that includes sorting transactions, matching them to the right accounts, creating journal entries, and handling exceptions. In simple terms, it connects blockchain activity directly to normal financial books so companies can understand their real financial position without manual work.
“Legacy software was built for manual workflows. The next financial system will be coordinated by humans and agents,” MoonPay CEO Ivan Soto-Wright said. He also explained that if stablecoins are going to be used widely by businesses, then finance systems must become just as fast and automated as payments themselves.
MoonPay’s broader AI vision
MoonPay said the acquisition is part of a bigger plan to build a full digital money system. The company already handles payments, wallets, trading, custody tools, and services for institutions. It has also been expanded through other deals, including the purchase of Sodot, which strengthened wallet security infrastructure, and Decent and DFlow, both recently acquired in May.
The acquisition comes amid its push into AI-powered tools. The company recently launched MoonAgents Desktop App, which lets people use simple text commands to interact with blockchain systems.’
The platform connects AI tools to blockchain actions such as trading, wallet funding, and transaction tracking, reflecting MoonPay’s move toward automated “agentic finance” where AI systems do financial tasks instead of humans doing everything step by step.
