Brex Inc. is an American financial service and technology company based in San Francisco, California. Brex offers business credit cards and cash management accounts to technology companies.[1] Brex cards are actually charge cards, require at least $100,000 in a bank account, or in monthly sales, to open, and cardholders who default won't damage their personal credit or assets.[2] Emigrant Bank issues the Brex cards.[3] In May 2020, the company raised a $150M equity financing round from DST Global and Lone Pine Capital bringing their total funding to $465M.[4]

Brex was founded by Brazilians Henrique Dubugras and Pedro Franceschi on January 3, 2017, who had previously founded online payments company, Pagar.me, before selling to Stone.[5][6]
