The story

Founded in 2021 as a Gen Z-focused Brazilian neobank (originally Neagle Bank), NG.CASH built its early wedge in the creator economy with a customizable prepaid Mastercard, PIX account, and financial-education content. Over 2024-2025 the company has evolved from a debit/prepaid consumer app into a fuller credit-and-investment platform, capped by the 2025 acquisition of BizCapital's SCD license — moving it from correspondent-bank distribution of BTG Pactual/QI Tech credit into direct on-balance-sheet lending. The Series B thesis extends the roadmap toward stablecoin custody.
