Buenos Aires-based fintech Pomelo just closed a Series C funding round worth $55 million, signaling aggressive expansion plans across Latin America. The capital infusion reflects growing investor confidence in the region's payment and financial services sector. With this fresh war chest, the startup is positioning itself to capture more market share in an underserved region where traditional banking infrastructure remains fragmented. Latin America's fintech scene continues heating up as both local and global players race to tap into the continent's 650+ million population.
