Flywire Corp. (NASDAQ:FLYW) is a global payments and software company that offers cross-border and domestic transaction solutions for businesses and institutions. It specializes in key sectors such as education, healthcare, travel, and B2B payments, helping clients streamline payment processes, lower costs, and enhance cash flow.

On February 25, 2025, Flywire Corp. (NASDAQ:FLYW) acquired Sertifi LLC, a software and payments platform serving the hospitality industry, for $330 million. This acquisition is expected to strengthen Flywire’s travel segment by integrating its services with Sertifi’s hotel property management system across more than 20,000 hospitality locations worldwide. Sertifi is projected to grow at a faster rate than Flywire’s overall business and contribute approximately $35-40 million in revenue for FY 2025, with gross margins in line with Flywire’s existing operations.

Flywire CEO Mike Massaro emphasized the significance of the acquisition, stating:

“By expanding into a large new subsegment of the hospitality industry with strong ecosystem alignment and gaining a software solution in the early stages of its payments monetization journey, we are unlocking new growth and innovation opportunities for Flywire.”

On March 24, a Citi analyst lowered the price target for Flywire Corp. (NASDAQ:FLYW) from $26 to $13 while maintaining a Buy rating. The analyst noted that the company faces challenges due to uncertain visibility and headwinds affecting international student payments. However, Citi believes the stock’s current valuation overly discounts Flywire’s long-term potential. The firm also suggested that the recent selloff in the stock increases the chances of inbound takeover interest.
