Neokred is a Fintech infrastructure company that empowers corporates, fintechs and start-ups to pioneer their own banking services with the help of modified tools. Aiming to democratize banking infrastructure by lubricating its interior processes, Neokred, with its technological propensity bridges companies and employees through its new-age API banking account offerings. The Bengaluru-based startup, co-founded by Tarun Nazare and Rohith Reji in 2019, has issued close to 2 lakh cards since December 2020.

This extension of capital brings us a little closer to fulfilling that vision for corporates and customers.
