Nubank, one of Brazils leading fintech companies, will launch a VIP lounge at So Paulos Guarulhos International Airport this week.Cristina Junqueira, the companys co-founder and Growth Director, announced the opening on social media, confirming the event will take place on October 13.
The lounge, located in Terminal 3 for international flights, will cater exclusively to Ultravioleta customers.This is Nubanks premium segment targeting high-income clients.
This initiative reflects Nubanks strategy to strengthen its appeal among affluent consumers by offering exclusive services.Ultravioleta began as a high-end credit card but has since evolved into a broader suite of products and experiences designed to deepen relationships with wealthier clients.Last year, Nubank also opened a dedicated space in So Paulos Ibirapuera Park for Ultravioleta customers, providing support and relaxation services.
The move comes amid increasing competition among financial institutions targeting Brazils wealthiest travelers.Nubank Joins VIP Lounge Race at Guarulhos Airport with Exclusive Offering.
