Across the 29 most recent financial services rounds listed for Egypt, one disclosed deal stands out: Paymob’s $50M Series B on 2022-05-09 is the only disclosed amount at $50M, above the next-largest disclosed round of $20M (Telda, 2022-10-12). Most other disclosed rounds cluster far lower (e.g., Octane $5M on 2025-06-17; Thndr $16M on 2025-05-17; Money Fellows $13M on 2025-05-04; enza $7M on 2025-03-24).
Geographically, Cairo dominates, with the vast majority of entries based in Cairo (including Octane, Thndr, Money Fellows, and enza), while Gîza/Gîza appears several times (e.g., Mohandes Insurance 2024-12-09; Qardy is “Al Jizah” with an undisclosed amount; Boyot has an undisclosed amount in 2022-06-16). Temporally, the visible window runs from 2021-01-06 (Cassbana, $1M) to 2025-06-17 (Octane, $5M), with multiple large disclosed rounds concentrated in spring 2025 (Thndr $16M on 2025-05-17; Money Fellows $13M on 2025-05-04; enza $7M on 2025-03-24).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Egypt financial services set, and is it an outlier versus the rest?
Paymob’s $50M Series B (2022-05-09) is the only disclosed round above $20M; the next-largest disclosed amount is Telda’s $20M seed (2022-10-12). Everything else disclosed here sits well below that level (for example Thndr $16M on 2025-05-17 and Money Fellows $13M on 2025-05-04).
Which city clusters most strongly—Cairo or the surrounding areas like Gîza/Al Jizah?
Cairo is the dominant base, with multiple entries explicitly listed in Cairo (e.g., Octane in Cairo on 2025-06-17, Thndr on 2025-05-17, Money Fellows on 2025-05-04, and enza on 2025-03-24). Gîza/Al Jizah also shows repeated appearances (Mohandes Insurance in Gîza on 2024-12-09; Qardy in Al Jizah on 2024-08-04; valU in 6 October City/Al Jizah on 2022-08-22), but it’s less frequent than Cairo in the shown rows.
Are there multiple deals concentrated in the most recent period (last ~90 days of the rows shown)?
Yes. In the most recent quarter of the dataset, there are at least four dated entries: Octane ($5M, 2025-06-17), Thndr ($16M, 2025-05-17), Money Fellows ($13M, 2025-05-04), and enza ($7M, 2025-03-24). The disclosed amounts in this cluster range from $5M to $16M.
How does the stage mix look when considering disclosed vs missing amounts?
Stage labels vary, but “Series Unknown” is common (e.g., Octane 2025-06-17, Thndr 2025-05-17, and several 2024–2023 entries). Separately, undisclosed amounts appear repeatedly—e.g., Qardy (Pre-Seed, 2024-08-04) and Paymob’s earlier set is contrasted by a fully disclosed $50M on 2022-05-09—so size comparisons rely mostly on the subset with disclosed dollar amounts.
Which disclosed deal is the smallest here, and what does that imply about the distribution?
Cassbana’s $1M pre-seed (2021-01-06) is the smallest disclosed amount in the rows shown. Compared with Paymob’s $50M (2022-05-09) and Telda’s $20M (2022-10-12), the disclosed amounts span a very wide range, with many deals falling into the single-digit millions (e.g., Amenli $2M on 2024-11-18; Kredit $2M on 2024-10-13; MNZL $4M on 2024-05-08).
