Since its launch in early 2018, Bnext has grown its userbase quicker than anyone else, becoming the leading neo-bank in Spain by surpassing the mark of 300,000 active users, now processing more than 100 million euros in monthly transactions.

Soon Bnext will launch its premium plans with even greater products, features and individual IBANs for each user.

With the funds raised, Bnext will further strengthen its leadership position in Spain and expand to Latin America, launching its services in Mexico later this year.
