“Can a Brazilian credit marketplace transcend personal loans and become the country's default embedded-credit distribution layer across e-commerce, MEIs, and secured lending?”
Founded in 2013 as Brazil's first online credit marketplace connecting borrowers to 60+ financial institutions. Historically dominated by personal loans (~90% of operations as of early 2024), the company has aggressively pivoted toward becoming a broader financial wallet — adding secured lending (real estate, vehicle, mobile collateral), MEI/autonomous credit, salary advance, and CDC embedded at e-commerce checkout. Open Finance is a stated strategic pillar for the next growth phase.
