Neobanks such as Kapital, Albo, and Oyster provide solutions for digital onboarding, expense management, and credit resources tailored for efficient operations. For example, Kapital offers more than 15 services via its AI-driven interface, aiding SMEs in handling payroll, billing, and financing without depending on established banks. These accounts frequently come with support for multiple currencies, virtual credit cards, and integrated finance options, allowing startups to grow internationally and function with flexibility. The focus is on cost-effectiveness, automation, and immediate oversight essential for the 4.9 million SMEs in Mexico that contribute almost half of the nation's GDP but only receive a limited amount of conventional financing.
