Disclosed amounts in this Turkey financial services set are dominated by a single outlier: Aklease raised $23M on 2026-06-04, while the next-largest disclosed rounds are $11M (Midas on 2022-02-07) and $10M (Seedify on 2023-09-12). At the low end, Nakit Yok’s $20K (2023-05-10) is the smallest disclosed amount shown, far below the $100K–$2M range that covers multiple other entries.
Rounds cluster heavily in Istanbul. Of the 23 rows, 20 list Istanbul (including multiple districts such as Kadikoy, Esenler, Maslak, and Umraniye), and most dated activity concentrates between 2022 and 2025, with the most recent row dated 2026-06-04 (Aklease) and the oldest dated 2020-12-30 (Figopara). Stage and disclosure are also skewed: only 11 rows show disclosed amounts, while the remaining 12 are “undisclosed” (including Mükellef on 2025-12-16, Influencer Finance on 2025-12-03, and Lojipay on 2025-01-10).

Frequently asked
What stands out in round size: are there clear outliers versus the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Aklease’s $23M on 2026-06-04 is the only disclosed round above $20M in the table; the next-largest disclosed amounts are $11M (Midas, 2022-02-07) and $10M (Seedify, 2023-09-12). At the other extreme, Nakit Yok’s $20K on 2023-05-10 is the smallest disclosed amount shown, well below the $100K–$2M band seen for entries like igor ($100K, 2021-09-01) and Zephlex ($2M, 2024-01-15).
How concentrated is the geography across this list, and do specific Istanbul districts show up repeatedly?
Istanbul dominates: 20 of 23 rows list Istanbul (with district-level mentions including Kadikoy for Kobe, Esenler for Zephlex and Craftgate, Maslak for Smart Advice, and Umraniye for Basefunder). Antalya (Nakit Yok) and Ankara (fonbulucu) appear once each, making them geographic outliers relative to the Istanbul-heavy pattern.
When looking at timing, do most funding events fall into a particular recent window?
Most dated entries in this view are between 2022-02-07 (Midas and fonbulucu) and 2025-12-03/2025-12-16 (Seed and Seed/undisclosed rounds for Influencer Finance and Mükellef), with the newest row on 2026-06-04 (Aklease). The range of dates shown runs from 2020-12-30 (Figopara) through 2026-06-04.
What does the disclosure pattern suggest: how often are amounts missing versus disclosed?
Disclosed dollar amounts appear in 11 of the 23 rows, while 12 are “undisclosed” (for example, Mükellef on 2025-12-16, Influencer Finance on 2025-12-03, and Lojipay on 2025-01-10). This means comparisons by size depend on a minority subset of entries rather than the full list.
Which stages are most common among disclosed entries, and does that create any stage-level clustering?
Among disclosed rounds, Seed is frequently represented (e.g., Zephlex $2M on 2024-01-15, Mundi $3M on 2025-02-12, and Craftgate $2M on 2022-06-01), and multiple entries also show Series Unknown with disclosed amounts (e.g., Aklease $23M on 2026-06-04 and Seedify $10M on 2023-09-12). Higher stages appear less often in disclosed form, including a Series A ($2M for Norma on 2021-12-13) and an Angel round (Basefunder $8M on 2023-06-16).
Are there other size extremes besides the top Aklease round that might warrant follow-up?
Yes. The smallest disclosed round is Nakit Yok’s $20K (2023-05-10), while the low-to-mid disclosed amounts cluster around $100K–$2M (igor $100K on 2021-09-01; Inspakt $150K on 2022-08-24; egaranti $610K on 2024-01-04; Zephlex and Craftgate both $2M on 2024-01-15 and 2022-06-01). Between those and the top end sit mid-disclosed rounds like Midas ($11M, 2022-02-07) and Seedify ($10M, 2023-09-12), which are substantially larger than the low-to-mid cluster.
