About Nomad
A pioneering fintech in offering Brazilians a bank account in the US with a debit card for use in over 180 countries, as well as access to a complete platform for international investments, beginning in 2019.

Currently, it provides a complete international financial life for Brazilians and, in August 2023, received an investment of US$ 61 million — the largest investment in fintechs in Latin America in the year —, with the aim of launching new products and expanding its platform with financial solutions, such as contracting foreign exchange transactions, a US bank account and access to international investments, including fixed income, stocks and ETFs traded on the main American stock exchanges.

With Nomad, customers can build their financial assets in dollars, in addition to making international transfers and purchases abroad with reduced IOF, which can generate savings of up to 10%, when compared to a card issued in Brazil. The Nomad card is accepted in over 180 countries for in-person and online transactions, in addition to allowing withdrawals from ATMs. The Nomad Pass, a pioneering and exclusive loyalty program in the category, makes Nomad's global account one of the most competitive on the market: the more resources customers use, the lower the operating fee and the greater the benefits.

The investment services offered by Nomad are brokered by Global Investment Services DTVM Ltda. In August 2024, fintech reached the level of over 2 million accounts.
