Bold.Co SAS

Based in Colombia, Bold. Co SAS offers innovative payment infrastructure solutions that empower businesses with advanced transaction capabilities, facilitating seamless payment processing and enhancing cash flow management for various enterprises. Bold. Co SAS was founded in 2019 in Bogota, Colombia, as a company focused on providing digital payment solutions.

In October 2025, Bold. Co SAS raised USD 40 million in venture funding led by returning investor General Atlantic, with participation from other returning investors Condor, InQlab, and International Finance Corporation. The CEO of the company is José Vélez, supported by key personnel including Liliana Herrera. In its journey, Bold has remained committed to refining its offerings without major pivots in its strategic direction.

Bold CF Compañía de Financiamiento provides a robust suite of digital payment solutions for businesses of all sizes. The company's primary offerings include a variety of datáfonos (point-of-sale terminals) that support multiple payment methods such as credit and debit cards, PSE, and Nequi, enabling merchants to process payments both in-person and online. These datáfonos feature built-in printers and connectivity options via SIM card and Wi-Fi, catering to diverse business environments. Additionally, the company offers a digital account (Cuenta Bold) that allows businesses to receive sales proceeds instantly while earning interest on their balance, addressing cash flow management needs.

Bold targets a broad client base across Latin America, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and larger commercial entities, thereby facilitating local and international sales through various platforms. Bold earns revenue primarily through transaction fees on card payments, interest from working capital loans, and premium service fees for advanced features. It also charges payment gateway fees for e-commerce transactions, operating on a transaction-based model without monthly subscription costs. The company will use the October 2025 funding to grow its operations in Colombia, expand across Latin America, and improve financial tools for SMEs.
