About NU Holdings

NU Holdings (Nubank) is the largest digital bank in the world by the number of customers (over 48 million), with an average of 40,000 new accounts being opened each day.

The company offering digital credit cards, transfers, and payments was founded in 2013 by Colombian David Vélez, Brazilian Cristina Junqueira and American Edward Wible and is headquartered in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Apart from serving clients in Brazil, Nubank also has operations in Colombia and Mexico.

Some of Nubank's investors are Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, Kaszek Ventures, Tiger Global Management, Goldman Sachs, QED Investors and DST Global. Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett’s company, also owns a $500 million stake in Nubank.

Nubank is considered one of the top 100 most influential companies globally by TIME magazine and one of 50 names in CNBC's 2021 Disruptor list.

The first transaction with a Nubank card was made on April 1, 2014. Four years later, Nubank became a unicorn startup with a valuation of more than US$1 billion. In the same year, Nubank launched its first financial product, an international Mastercard credit card that can be managed through a mobile app.

In 2017, Nubank launched its loyalty program, Nubank Rewards, followed by its digital account, NuConta. In 2020, Nubank bought Plataformatec, a company specialising in software engineering, and Easyinvest, a Brazilian investment broker.
