CredAluga operates as a financial technology company in Brazil, focusing on the real estate rental market. Founded in 2022 by Daniel Santos and Guilherme Blumer, the company aims to support traditional real estate agencies by providing modern financial tools. The founders bring extensive experience from the real estate sector; Santos grew up in his father's real estate agency, Casa Mineira, one of the largest in Belo Horizonte, while Blumer has a background in advertising and has worked with companies like ZAP Imóveis and PDG Realty.
The company's business model is B2B2C, partnering directly with real estate agencies to offer financial solutions to tenants and landlords. This approach avoids competing with the agencies, instead empowering them with tools to rival larger online platforms. Revenue is generated through monthly fees paid by tenants for the rental guarantee service, with plans varying based on the level of coverage required.
CredAluga's primary service is a rental guarantee that replaces the need for a traditional guarantor (fiador) or a security deposit. This service includes a proprietary credit analysis of potential tenants, which assesses risk and determines approval. For landlords, CredAluga guarantees timely rent payments, even if the tenant defaults, and provides coverage of up to 40 times the monthly rent value. Tenants benefit from a streamlined, fully digital application process without needing a guarantor, with options to pay the service fee in installments. The platform incorporates anti-fraud technology, such as facial biometrics and data validation, to ensure transaction security. In October 2024, the company secured a R$22 million seed funding round led by Caravela Capital to invest in technology, develop new products, and expand its commercial operations across Brazil.
