These services, which integrate seamlessly via API, include SME insurance finance, B2B channel finance, POS finance, and invoice finance. Since its establishment in 2023, CredibleX has already disbursed approximately $27.2 million in loans, showcasing its capacity to meet the growing demands of SMEs effectively.
