Occupi, an Alabama-based fintech company revolutionizing payment solutions for property management, today announced the successful completion of its oversubscribed seed funding round, raising $3.105 million.
Fenway Summer and Assurant Ventures co-led the round, which also included strategic investments from social impact venture capital firms Halcyon Venture Partners and Sorenson Impact Foundation as well as strong private investors, representing a diverse nationwide footprint of partnerships including the Washington D.C., Georgia, Utah, and Alabama markets. The oversubscribed round positions Occupi to scale its payment and screening solutions across affordable and student housing sectors in multi-family, manufactured, and single family markets.
“With this funding, we’re positioned to responsibly scale and deliver true payment optionality to residents, while removing operational friction for property managers. We’re honored to have the support of institutional and individual investors whose deep expertise in finance, housing, and compliance strengthens our foundation. Their backing equips us to grow securely, compliantly, and with lasting impact.” said Josh Hornady, Occupi’s Chief Legal Officer.

Occupi’s AI-leveraged payment and screening platform addresses a critical pain point in property management by facilitating seamless payment options, including traditional and alternative methods like digital cash wallets, posted across multiple property management systems. The Occupi platform allows property managers to offer residents better payment options while maintaining operational efficiency.
“Our roadmap is full of financial tools designed to be accessible and inclusive, and our investors will help us bring that vision to life. Occupi is built on genuine partnership, and we’re lucky to work with collaborators who care as deeply about connection and impact as we do.” said Emily Hart, Occupi’s COO and Co-Founder.
With the recent capital injection, Occupi is accelerating its growth trajectory through strategic hiring, including experienced payment and proptech engineers across the country and in the local market. The funding will also support Occupi’s expanding feature set, including a recent partnership with Alabama Power Foundation to develop specialized features addressing the unique requirements of affordable housing assistance programs.
“Nothing is more humbling than raising startup capital in 2025, but we were fortunately positioned to be selective with our partners,” said Taylor Peake, Occupi’s CEO and Co-Founder. “We could not be happier with our venture partners and private investors, who have been incredible assets as we scale Occupi’s payment and screening platform.”
