The story

Techfin ERP Finance is the 2026 rebrand of the merged TOTVS Techfin + Supplier — a joint venture between TOTVS (Brazil's largest enterprise software company) and Itaú Unibanco (Latin America's largest private bank). The company embeds credit, receivables, and Pix-based payments directly into TOTVS ERPs, distributing financial services to the installed base of Brazilian SMBs and mid-market companies. The strategic pivot is going from a discrete supplier-finance product (Supplier since 2004) into a full ERP-native financial OS, with Conta+ Techfin marking a move into embedded accounts/payments alongside existing lending.
