The Week's Largest Startup Funding Rounds

Here are the biggest disclosed startup funding rounds across Latin America this week.

/1. Cashea, $100M, Fintech (BNPL), Venezuela 

Cashea operates a buy now, pay later (BNPL) platform that allows consumers to split purchases into interest-free instalments, making everyday goods and services more accessible. The platform has become one of Venezuela's fastest-growing consumer fintech companies, helping users access credit in a market with limited financing options.

The company raised $100 million in a Series B round led by Upper90, with participation from existing investors. The funding will support Cashea's expansion across Venezuela, strengthen its lending capabilities, and introduce new financial products as it scales its consumer finance platform.
