Play Money Selects Modern Treasury to Power Payments for Its Angel Investing Platform

San Francisco, CA — [October 15, 2026] — Modern Treasury, which provides infrastructure for global money movement, today announced that Play Money, an angel investing platform, has selected Modern Treasury’s Payment Service Provider (PSP) to power its payments infrastructure.

Play Money was founded to make angel investing easy, transparent, and accessible. The platform curates one vetted startup deal each week for accredited investors and pairs it with a founder video, deal-lead diligence, and insights from co-investors.

As Play Money adds more deals, investors, and dollars, it needs payments infrastructure that can reliably collect funds from investors, disburse them to founders, and give both the company and its users clear visibility into where every dollar stands.

"Before Modern Treasury, moving money across every deal meant piecing together bank statements, vendors, and manual reconciliation to answer two basic questions: has this investor's money arrived, and has this founder been paid," said Cheryl Kellond, Co-Founder and CEO of Play Money. "Bringing accounts, ledgering, and payments into one integration streamlines our operations. We know exactly where every dollar is, and we can give our investors and founders that same confidence."

With one integration, Modern Treasury’s Payments API enables Play Money to:

• Collect investor funds via ACH debits and wire for each weekly deal, giving angels a reliable way to fund their commitments as deals close
• Programmatically create sub-accounts to manage funds across entities without adding operational overhead
• Pay out founders via ACH, wire, RTP, and FedNow once a deal is funded, so startups receive capital quickly and predictably
• Ledger every transaction in real time, giving Play Money and its users a clear record of commitments, payments, and funding status

By bringing accounts, ledgering, and payments together in one API, Play Money can avoid stitching together separate systems to track money from investor to deal to founder.

“Private-market investing is moving toward a more accessible, community-driven model, and the infrastructure behind it has to evolve too,” said Matt Marcus, Co-Founder and CEO of Modern Treasury. “Play Money is helping shape that next chapter. We’re proud to provide the financial foundation they need to scale while delivering the speed, visibility, and trust investors and founders expect.”
