Actor Ryan Reynolds continues to expand his impressive investment portfolio. After receiving a huge windfall by selling his stake in Mint Mobile to T-Mobile US earlier this year, Reynolds is using some of that money to branch into fintech.

Reynolds announced on Monday that he made an investment in payments technology company Nuvei Corporation. The Canadian fintech firm provides businesses with pay-in and payout options that allow them to send or receive payments from more than 500 payment methods.

Reynolds also recorded a short humorous advertisement for Nuvei in which he appears alongside founder and CEO Philip Fayer.

Nuvei is a publicly listed company that saw $843.3 million in revenue in 2022 and has New Balance, Virgin Atlantic, and DraftKings among its clients. It recently acquired competitor Paya Holdings in a deal that is valued at $1.3 billion.

Reynolds currently also has a stake in gin brand Aviation American Gin and co-owns soccer club Wrexham AFC with his friend and fellow actor Rob McElhenney.

“I know about as much about fintech as I did about gin or mobile a few years ago. But Nuvei is impressive,” Reynolds said in a statement issued on Monday. “The leadership team is exceedingly intelligent and hard-working and it’s about time a Canadian company got the type of attention American tech companies do.”

Actor Ryan Reynold long maintained that his mobile virtual network operator Mint Mobile is an affordable and customer-focused alternative to big telecommunication companies. However, that didn’t stop him from selling it to one.

According to an announcement made earlier this week, T-Mobile US has acquired Mint Mobile’s parent company Ka’ena Corp in a deal that is valued at $1.35 billion. The acquisition of Ka’ena Corp, which also has prepaid mobile network brand Ultra Mobile and wholesale wireless provider Plum under its wing, will come in 39 percent cash and 61 percent stock combination.

“Over the long-term, we’ll also benefit from applying the marketing formula Mint has become famous for across more parts of T-Mobile. We think customers are really going to win with a more competitive and expansive Mint and Ultra,” said Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile US.

With the acquisition of Mint Mobile, T-Mobile US is looking to expand its prepaid offering and reach lower-income customers. Mint Mobile offered one of the cheapest mobile plans in the nation in recent years and has seen its customer base double in number in the past four years.

Reynolds, who is believed to have owned around 25 percent of Mint Mobile, will continue being associated with the operator. He will keep his creative role within the company and continue appearing in Mint’s commercials.
