Plaid has not been sold, but it commanded a landmark proposed acquisition valuation of $5.3 billion when Visa attempted to buy the company in 2020—a deal that was ultimately scrapped due to antitrust regulatory hurdles. In subsequent private venture financing rounds and employee share sales, Plaid achieved private market valuations peaking near $13.4 billion, with more recent private market evaluations fluctuating around the $6 billion to $8 billion range.
