Hishabee is Bangladesh’s #1 platform for 7M under-banked mom-and-pop shops to digitise their business and connect to digital financial services. We work with over 300k businesses to access embedded finance and digitalise back office operations, helping these businesses save over 60 hours and $102 monthly.

“Hishabee” is a Bangla word that means someone who is extremely good with numbers and scaling businesses. Similar to the literal meaning, our app is transforming how small businesses track, manage and grow their businesses. We finance unbanked retailers to stock products at zero upfront cost so they can stock now, sell and pay later while leveraging our users’ record-keeping data to assess risk and creditworthiness.

Since launching an initial version of our product in March 2021, Hishabee has seen substantial growth with 300,000 of these small businesses onboarded on our platform, partnered with one of the leading banks in Bangladesh and enabled embedded finance in the platform. Hishabee aims to bring 500,000 underbanked businesses into the banking umbrella by 2030.
