Kontigo

Kontigo is pioneering the future of borderless banking as a USDC Smart Neobank serving Latinos across the U.S. and Latin America. With explosive growth since launching our Peer-to-Peer onramp just 20 days ago—$540,000 in deposits, 10,000 active users, and a waitlist exceeding 300,000—we're rapidly addressing critical financial challenges facing the region. Our founding team brings exceptional fintech expertise from industry leaders including Venmo, Nubank, Rappi, MercadoLibre, Ualá, Platzi, and Yuno, backed by prominent investors such as DST Global, Soma Capital, Pioneer Fund, and Transpose.

For decades, Latin Americans have struggled with a fragmented financial landscape spanning 33 countries and 39 currencies, where cross-border transactions can cost up to 20% while local currencies face devastating depreciation—some exceeding trillion-percent inflation. Kontigo's innovative solution combines a USDC global wallet with a Bitcoin savings account, effectively creating a Venmo-like experience on USDC, a Zelle-equivalent for unlimited cross-border transfers, and a Nubank/Revolut alternative without the vulnerability to inflationary currencies.

What truly sets Kontigo apart is our seamless integration with everyday communication tools—our user wallets connect directly to an AI-powered private banker on WhatsApp, enabling frictionless international USDC transactions with unprecedented ease. By eliminating the traditional pain points of sending, receiving, and storing money across Latin America, Kontigo is not merely offering a financial product but delivering financial sovereignty to a region long underserved by conventional banking systems.
