Mesfix

Can a peer-to-peer invoice marketplace replace bank factoring for Colombian SMEs without ever becoming a regulated financial institution?

The story

Mesfix is Colombia's first crowdfactoring marketplace, founded as a Bogotá-based fintech connecting SMEs that need liquidity with retail investors who buy fractions of their receivables. The model is explicitly disintermediated — Mesfix never touches the money, routing all flows through Colombian PSP PayU. The company is supervised by the Superintendencia de Sociedades as a commercial brokerage rather than a regulated financial institution.
