About the customer
Founded in 2017, UalΓ‘ is an Argentine fintech offering an ecosystem of financial solutions designed to improve the lives of Latin Americans through a wide variety of products and services including payment accounts, cards, savings, loans, investments and collection solutions, among others.
With a 100% digital offering, UalΓ‘ quickly became successful after it saw an opportunity: an imbalance in Argentina where mobile phone penetration stood at 92% while banking penetration lagged at 50%.
With over 8 million users across Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico, UalΓ‘ continues to expand, building new business verticals and driving innovation and technological advancement throughout Latin America.

βWe chose Mambu because it has a global presence and a proven track record in scaling lending businesses worldwide. With Mambu, we could start building right away and adapt to customer demands quickly.β
