Cashea has announced a US$100 million Series B funding round that will be fully invested in Venezuela. The fintech company plans to use the capital to expand access to responsible credit, develop new financial products for consumers and businesses, strengthen its technology platform, and continue growing its ecosystem across the country.

Investors back Venezuela’s long-term potential

According to Cashea, the Series B round was supported by US institutions, global investment firms, and Latin American investors. The company said many investors visited Venezuela before participating in the round, meeting with users and merchant partners to better understand the impact that increased access to credit can have on local communities.

The investment reflects confidence not only in Cashea’s business model but also in Venezuela’s economic potential. The company emphasized that the funding represents a commitment to creating more financial opportunities for individuals and businesses across the country.

Expanding financial services and technology

Cashea plans to use the new funding to accelerate the development of additional financial solutions while continuing to improve its technology infrastructure. The company also aims to expand the services available to millions of users and thousands of partner businesses already using the Cashea platform.

The announcement follows the launch of Cashea’s “Venezuela, I Believe in You” initiative, introduced after recent earthquakes in the country to support affected families and businesses. The fintech said the new investment continues that broader commitment to helping Venezuelan communities.

Beyond financial services, Cashea also highlighted its support for Generación Impulso, an educational initiative that currently provides programming and robotics training to 7,800 teenagers.
