How does it work

What security measures does Belvo use?

Enterprise-level security

Protecting your account information and privacy is our top priority. We take strong steps to keep your data safe and private, following best practices and rules to ensure it remains confidential and secure. We’ve been certified to meet the highest international standards for security, including ISO 27001, meaning that an independent organization has certified our ways of working.

Data is always encrypted

Our platform was designed with security in mind from its beginning, ensuring that connecting your accounts happens safely and privately. All your data is protected using advanced cryptographic technology, so it is unreadable to anyone who shouldn’t have access, both when it is being sent across the internet or when stored on our servers. No data enters or leaves Belvo without being protected.

The best security infrastructure

We leverage the robust infrastructure of Amazon Web Services (AWS)’s highly secure data centers. Our platform is protected by multiple layers of physical and digital security and is designed to stay online even in the event of a major disruption. This setup ensures that our services are always available and reliable, even if something goes wrong. If one system fails, another immediately takes over.

Constant monitoring and security policies

We maintain a proactive security posture. We conduct regular third-party penetration tests so we can find and fix any weaknesses before they can be exploited. Our systems are monitored 24/7 for any suspicious activity. If something is detected, our team is immediately alerted and takes action to resolve the issue and restore service as quickly as possible. All employees follow strict security rules and our systems are regularly checked.

By securely sharing your data through Belvo, you gain more control over your financial information as you can decide with which company you share it to access services that meet your needs.

Some of the benefits you can get by sharing your data through Belvo are:

  • Access to loans tailored to your needs: through Belvo, you can demonstrate your creditworthiness or employment status to be eligible for credit products tailored to you.

    Our platform was architected with a security-first approach, incorporating multiple layers of protection. Crucially, all data is encrypted at all times – both in transit and at rest – using advanced encryption protocols.

    We are committed to upholding the highest standards of data protection and privacy, as demonstrated by our ISO 27001 certification and PCI DSS compliance.

    These internationally recognized certifications are not just badges; they represent our ongoing dedication to maintaining a robust and continuously improving Information Security Management System, ensuring your peace of mind.

    To share your financial information with companies using Belvo, you need to either connect your bank account (banking data and payments) or enter your credentials (fiscal and employment data). Belvo then encrypts and securely stores this information and safely extracts data from your account using a read-only access mode, always with your permission and without ever exposing its content.

    To protect your privacy and security at all times, Belvo employs strong encryption that turns your credentials into unreadable data, while your keys remain safe in a private vault.

    Neither Belvo nor the services using our platform will have direct access to your credentials at any time, and they will only be used to access your data with your permission through an automated and secure computer system.

    Belvo works with hundreds of financial companies in Latin America, including some of the major banks in Mexico and Brazil, as well as neobanks, digital wallets, and credit providers. Some select customers include BBVA, Banamex, Bradesco, Santander, Mercado Pago, Nubank, and many more.

    At Belvo, we believe that security and privacy are fundamental. We achieve this through advanced technology, a skilled team, and a dedication to exceeding best practices.

    Our platform is designed to protect your financial information throughout its entire journey. We have multiple layers of security, so even if one layer is breached, others are still in place. This includes:

  • End-to-end data protection: We encrypt your data whenever it’s stored and during transport, making it unreadable to unauthorized parties.
  • Proven security: We’ve been certified to meet the highest international standards for security (ISO27001). Furthermore, we meet the security standards required to handle payment transaction information safely (PCI-DSS).
  • Always-on monitoring: We monitor our systems constantly to detect and respond to any potential security threats.
  • Belvo doesn’t just rely on current practices to make open finance more secure, we keep updating our defenses with the latest safety measures.
