Karmic, a leader in the convergence of payment cards and mobile software, has raised $17.2 million in a Series B round of financing. The company also announced that Wei Hopeman and Jim Whims have joined its board of directors.

“This investment propels Karmic to the next stage of growth, and adding Wei and Jim’s expertise to our board will help us get there quicker,” says Mario Furgiuele, CEO of Karmic. “Karmic continues to build out our proprietary technology solutions to support payment and expense management products for small- and medium-sized businesses, increasing their access to the growing purchasing card market, expected to be $377 billion by 2019.”
