The market

PSE handles online bank transfer, but a substantial part of the population sits outside the banking system entirely. Nequi and Daviplata are how those users pay, with Efecty covering cash.

What we would tell you

PSE alone reaches only the banked six in ten. Nequi and Daviplata are what make the rest of the market addressable.
