On-demand liquidity platform The Money Club has raised $2.5 million in a Series A funding round led by Prudent Investment Managers. The round also saw participation from HNIs of Singapore and Dubai, 1Crowd AIF, along with its existing investors, including Venture Catalysts, LetsVenture, Z21 Ventures, and Supermorepheus. The company had previously raised $2.54 million from its existing investors. The fresh funds will be deployed toward developing financial inclusion solutions, expanding technological capabilities, and providing financial empowerment to underserved populations, The Money Club said in a press release. Launched in 2018 by Manuraj Jain, The Money Club provides a fully digital platform that offers its new-to-credit users on-demand liquidity without any physical paperwork. The platform is designed to cater to the unmet financial needs of low-income populations, particularly the 400 million lower middle-class Indians who face significant barriers in accessing traditional financial products. According to the Noida-based company, it enables users from across the country to rotate their savings digitally and access funds on demand in times of need. It runs entirely on UPI rails and collects valuable behavioral data, enabling a dynamic, real-time underwriting model that creates accurate credit profiles using more than 30 unique attributes per transaction. This approach provides 20 times more data than traditional credit models, significantly enhancing the previously non-existent digital footprint of nano-entrepreneurs to bring them under the ambit of the formal financial ecosystem. The Money Club claims to have successfully acquired over 7 lakh users, mostly new to credit, who have rotated approximately Rs 350 crore of their savings to date and generated a digital footprint of over 4.3 million transactions. The platform boasts a 98% user retention rate. It may compete directly or indirectly with other companies in this space, such as myPaisaa, Subspace, and Shriram Chits, among others.
