How fast Nubank has grown in Colombia
The company reported another quarter of strong customer additions in Colombia in the first three months of 2026, putting it close to the five million mark. It ended 2025 with about four million customers, roughly double its 2024 base.
That reach is equal to about one in ten Colombian adults, the company says, with users in every department and nearly all municipalities. It counts itself among the country’s larger institutions by deposits.
Colombia is the newest of Nubank’s three markets, after Brazil and Mexico. The local arm offers savings accounts, credit cards and personal loans, and has been adding products as it grows.
A growing regional business
Parent company Nu Holdings reports more than 135 million customers across its three countries, with the large majority in Brazil and a growing base in Mexico. The group said quarterly net income reached US$871 million, up 41% from a year earlier, with revenue topping US$5 billion.
The numbers point to a broader shift, as digital banks win customers from traditional lenders across Latin America. Whether that growth holds will depend on credit quality and competition, which are tightening as the market matures.
