A new digital challenger, Adapta Bank, has launched in Brazil offering consumers all the features of modern-day banking through a free mobile app account.

Adapta Bank also helps users discover credit options through its financial marketplace Agilizacred, which connects financial institutions with customers and enables users to access several lines of credit through the app.

According to its website, the firm does not carry out credit operations directly but rather acts as a "digital credit consultant" that aims to reduce bureaucracy, risks and credit costs for both sides.

"In addition, we shorten the distance between financial institutions and their potential customers," Adapta Bank says.

"The platform is safe, fast and completely free for consumers."
