Brink Commerce, a leading composable commerce platform for enterprise retailers and brands, has secured a €5 million investment led by Qvantea Capital. This funding will support Brink's continued growth and meet the increasing demand for modern, scalable e-commerce solutions.
Since its launch in 2020, Brink Commerce has rapidly become the platform of choice for enterprise online retailers and brands seeking profitable growth. With a developer-first strategy and a focus on flexibility and performance, Brink has achieved an average annual growth rate of over 150% since 2022. The platform currently processes close to SEK 10 billion in annual transaction volume and reached EBITDA profitability in 2024.
"Our mission has always been to empower retailers and brands with the tools they need to adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing market," said Kristian Tysander, CEO of Brink Commerce. "This investment from Qvantea Capital enables us to further enhance our platform and support our clients' growth ambitions."
Brink Commerce’s API-only architecture gives enterprise merchants full control to build, evolve, and scale their commerce operations without the constraints of legacy platforms. Since early 2021, a notable share of the Nordics’ leading retailers and brands - including Axel Arigato, Skistar, Tibber, Bagaren och Kocken, Bergans of Norway, Kidsbrandstore and Nelly.com - have chosen Brink as their new commerce engine to meet the real demands of modern retail. In just a few years, Brink has become a trusted partner for those looking to innovate without the limitations of legacy systems.
As AI accelerates innovation and reshapes both consumer behavior and B2B expectations, the pace of change in commerce is faster than ever. Technology is no longer just an enabler — it’s becoming the competitive edge. Brink Commerce is purpose-built for this new era, giving merchants the adaptability, performance, and resilience required to thrive in a shifting global landscape.
“As we engaged with Brink and their clients, it became increasingly clear that Brink is delivering something far beyond a commerce platform — it’s enabling a structural competitive advantage. During the due diligence process clients consistently highlighted significantly lower operating costs, stronger margins, and reduced barriers to adopting new technologies such as automation and AI. Brink’s architecture allows them to adapt and optimize their commerce operations in-flight, without the delays and overhead typically associated with major platform changes. When we asked what platform they would choose if Brink didn’t exist, every customer gave the same answer: ‘There is no viable alternative today.’ That’s when we fully understood the power of what Brink has built — a strategically critical infrastructure partner that sits at the core of their customers’ long-term growth agendas,” says Simon M Lidén, Partner at Qvantea Capital.
The collaboration between Brink and Qvantea is built on a shared vision of what makes a company truly successful, with a long-term perspective that aligns perfectly with our way of working. We were looking for a long-term partner with the right mindset — and we’ve found that in Qvantea,” said Kristian Tysander, CEO & Co-founder of Brink Commerce. “With this investment, we have everything in place. The foundation is strong, our team is ready, and now we have the resources to take Brink Commerce to the next level.”
Brink Commerce is pleased to welcome Qvantea Capital as the new lead investor, joining a strong group of industry-focused investors who have supported the company since its inception. Their continued backing and the addition of new strategic partners further strengthen Brink’s position for the next phase of growth.
Brink Commerce leverages the latest technology to develop scalable and efficient solutions tailored for forward-looking merchants. Its infrastructure is designed to handle high-demand scenarios with unmatched reliability, ensuring optimized operations for retailers in an increasingly complex market landscape.
The platform is built to support enterprise merchants with modern solutions that enable efficient operations, global scalability, and exceptional customer experiences. Brink Commerce enables merchants to optimize their sales channels, manage operations seamlessly, and future-proof their businesses with a highly adaptable and resilient infrastructure. For merchants seeking a robust, scalable, and high-performance eCommerce solution, there is simply no better option.
The new investment will be used to strengthen Brink Commerce’s market position, expand its team, and further enhance its technology to meet the evolving needs of enterprise merchants across the Nordics and beyond. Brink Commerce is now positioned for the next phase of accelerated, international growth.
