The company is the first digital banking platform to surpass this milestone outside of Asia and is honoring its customers in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia with a tech-first campaign

Nubank announced today that it has surpassed 100 million customers in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, making it the first digital banking platform to reach this milestone outside of Asia. The achievement comes on the heels of record 2023 financial results, with over US$1 billion in net profit and over US$8 billion in revenues, which attest to the solidity, efficiency, and scalability of Nubank’s business model.

Currently, Nubank serves more than 92 million customers in Brazil, over 7 million in Mexico, and close to 1 million in Colombia, with record levels of satisfaction. According to internal analyses, the company's NPS (Net Promoter Score) is nearly three times higher than incumbents and other major local fintechs.

True to its mission of "fighting complexity to empower people”, Nubank is leveraging tech and innovation to drive competition in the sector, and transform millions of lives through inclusion and improved financial management. The company’s digital model has helped its customers save more than 11 billion dollars in banking fees in 2023 and to spare more than 440 million hours of waiting in service queues over the past seven years¹.

In Brazil, in a twelve month period, Nubank promoted the financial inclusion of 5.7 million people in the credit card market². After breaking the access barrier, research showed that 60% of Brazilian customers improved their financial journey in the first 24 months, through frequent and responsible use of credit cards and other financial products³.

"In 2013, we had set ourselves the ambitious goal to reach one million customers in five years, which seemed almost impossible at the time. In a decade, we have surpassed 100 million, which is a testament to the trust our customers place in us and to the power of a truly customer-centric business model. These 100 million customers have written their stories together with ours, and we want to honor them in a special way," explains David Vélez, founder and CEO of Nubank.

Nubank is launching “You at the center of everything”, a campaign that leverages technology and innovation to highlight real customers’ journeys through an activation on the Exosphere – the exterior of Sphere in Las Vegas and the largest LED screen in the world.

The Exosphere activation shows 360 degrees of images of Nubank customers on the exterior of the venue - which is nearly 112 meters high and more than 157 meters wide. The faces are formed by purple particles, each of which represents one of Nubank's 100 million customers. Together, they illustrate that Nubank is composed of all their individual stories. Nubank customers will be featured from May 7th to the 14th on the Exosphere, kickstarting additional local campaigns and customer engagement in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia. Nubank’s 100 Million campaign materials are available at www.nubank.com.br/100M.

“Being customer-centric has been guiding us since the very beginning. Today, we want our customers to see themselves the way we see them: at the center of everything. In reaching this milestone, we want to focus on the real people and individual stories of empowerment and advance our mission to help improve people’s lives," emphasizes Cristina Junqueira, co-founder and Chief Growth Officer of Nubank.

A record journey to 100 million customers

Nubank was born in 2013 in Brazil with the mission to fight complexity to empower people in their daily lives by reinventing financial services, using technology to solve problems, and putting a bank in people's pockets. Betting against a general fintech trend to begin operations with savings, the company launched a credit card with no fees, with the goal to tackle the most challenging financial vertical first: lending. The other key differential is the 100% cloud-native platform, which allows for scalable growth with a low cost structure, and powers some of the fastest data processing capabilities in the industry for product design, credit and risk models, and personalization.

The company surpassed one million customers in Brazil two years after launching its first product, three years ahead of forecast and mostly through organic member-get-member dynamics. The savings account, launched in 2017, unlocked further growth by enabling a suite of products: personal loans, SME solutions, investments, and crypto. Today, the portfolio includes marketplace and insurance, among others.

Starting in 2019, Nubank began to expand internationally, in Mexico and Colombia, leveraging the unique combination of cloud-native technology, customer centricity, efficient business model, and brand love. The Mexican customer base is growing faster than Brazil at similar stages for Savings and Credit Card, and is in its journey to obtain a banking license to keep expanding its product portfolio into investments, payroll products and higher credit lines, among others. In Colombia, the company introduced its savings product earlier in the year, which already has over 500,000 customers signed into the launch list.
