About

Neon Pagamentos is a Brazilian fintech founded in 2016 with the goal of uniting technology and design to simplify users’ financial experience. Born of founder Pedro Conrade’s personal frustration with the services provided by traditional banks in Brazil, including expensive fees and poor customer service, the company launched with a simple digital account and has since expanded its product suite to include investment products, credit cards, and personal loans, serving both consumer and business clients. This expansion has been enabled by the strategic acquisitions of MEI Fácil, which offers tax, payments, and financial education products for micro-entrepreneurs, in 2019, and Magliano Invest, one of Brazil’s first brokerages, in 2020. Today, Neon serves a customer base of more than 9 million accounts across its consumer and business platforms.
