About

Cumbuca is an infratech bank for developers to build financial products with direct Central Bank connectivity. Instead of working around unreliable middleware, you get bare-metal access to Pix, payment initiation, and data APIs under our license, so you ship products faster and we handle the compliance. There's no vendor lock-in, and your service will never be disrupted by us.

Self taught developer, released first iPhone app when 14y - currently 23y. Dropped out of Computer Engineering degree in Brazil after brief time doing Cog Sci @ UC Berkeley to become an entrepreneur focused on improving the lives of Brazil's lower income population, and have been working with low income households and gig economy workers for the past 2.5 years. I’m a huge enthusiast on all things human behavior, gig economy, fintech, and above all in ways to unlock LATAM full potential.
