The story

Koin started in 2014 as a post-pay online purchase solution in Brazil, letting shoppers receive goods before paying. It evolved into a broader payments and antifraud platform, now positioning itself as an embedded BNPL (Pix Parcelado, Boleto Parcelado), card gateway, and AI-driven antifraud stack for Brazilian and LatAm e-commerce. Operates as a licensed payment institution (não-financeira) and acts as a banking correspondent of BMP Money Plus SCD and Aymoré CFI to originate installment credit.
