- Robbin
Led · Seed · May 2026
Robbin offers a co-branded finance product that lets manufacturers provide virtual Pix-based cards and credit to their retail customers, delivering real-time payments and lower operational costs. The company launched an AI assistant called Robbinson to approve credit in real time via WhatsApp for industry sales teams. Its business model focuses on strengthening industry–retailer relationships by expanding retailers’ purchasing power and offering payment benefits convertible into discounts or loyalty points. Robbin was founded in 2023 by Leonardo Moura (CEO), Henrique Meyer and CTO Tomás Corrêa. The firm raised a US$8 million seed round and also structured a US$100 million FIDC with Augme to fund its credit operations.
