Moni, a Buenos Aires, Argentina-based fintech platform, raised $3m in funding.

The International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, made the investment.

The company will use the funds to accelerate its growth and expand its product line for underbanked consumers further improving their borrowing conditions with lower-interest rates and more sustainable credit products such as micro installment loans.

By using proprietary technology, the company enables consumers to apply for a loan and pay for telecom, utility and other bills through a mobile app.
