Salary advance to employees in Brazil.
Facio offers salary advance services in Brazil, enabling employees to access a portion of their earned wages before payday. The service emphasizes fast transfers and repayment aligned to the next salary, acting as a payroll-related financial product hosted through a platform connected with direct credit providers.
Users register to discover available salary advance offers based on their identified salary. They select an offer with a fixed fee (no interest or complex charges), receive the money into their account within minutes, and repay when their next salary is paid. Facio positions itself as a payroll-linked service facilitated through a lending/credit pathway via a brokered arrangement with a direct credit entity, with terms shown in a simulator prior to contract.
Who it’s for: Employees with fixed salaries in Brazil seeking short-term liquidity and a simple repayment aligned to their next paycheck.
