As of September 26, 2026, Airwallex is a private company with no S-1, F-1, or equivalent registration statement on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's EDGAR system, which covers only US filings, and no filing has been identified with any other exchange or regulator. Airwallex president Lucy Liu told Fortune's Term Sheet, in reporting published August 31, 2026, that the company still plans to be "IPO-ready" by the end of 2026, though the plan has gotten less certain, and that now is "just not the best time, given how complicated things are." Liu's remarks followed two recent rounds: $330 million raised in December 2025 and another $320 million in June 2026, described as a "Series H" round. Liu said the goal of that capital was to "have enough capital to fast-charge" Airwallex's plans rather than rush to a public listing. No specific IPO date, exchange, or filing timeline has been disclosed. Segmara is a research resource only: it does not sell, broker, or arrange purchases of Airwallex shares, and offers no investment advice or predictions about listing timing.

Key points

A softer target, not a new date

Airwallex president Lucy Liu told Fortune's Term Sheet, in reporting published August 31, 2026, that the company still plans to be "IPO-ready" by the end of 2026. She added that the plan has gotten less certain, and that now is "just not the best time, given how complicated things are."

That is a statement about readiness, not a confirmed listing date, exchange, or regulator. No S-1, F-1, or equivalent registration statement for Airwallex has been identified on SEC EDGAR, which covers only US filings, or elsewhere.

Two rounds instead of a rush to list

Rather than moving toward a listing on the original timeline, Airwallex raised $330 million in December 2025 and a further $320 million in a round described as "Series H" in June 2026, according to the same Fortune reporting.

Liu said the purpose of that capital was to "have enough capital to fast-charge" the company's plans, rather than to rush into going public. Fortune's report does not attach a valuation, lead investor, or use-of-proceeds breakdown to either round beyond that description.

What would actually confirm a listing

None of the reported statements amount to an IPO filing. A registration statement filed with a specific exchange or regulator, such as the SEC via EDGAR for US listings, would be the first verifiable step, together with a specific date from Airwallex itself.

As of September 26, 2026, no such filing has been identified. Segmara's role here is research only: it does not sell or broker Airwallex shares, does not offer investment advice, and does not predict whether or when a listing will happen.

Analytical lens

Search intent

Searches like 'When Will Airwallex IPO? President Says 2026 Plan Is Less Certain' are research questions: what a filing or a company statement confirms, what has only been reported, and what is still unknown.

What counts as a listing step

For an IPO, the primary record is a registration statement filed with the securities regulator of the listing market, such as an S-1 or F-1 on SEC EDGAR for a US listing. Funding rounds, valuations and secondary-market prices are context, not listing steps.

Segmara role
