Read full description
The company's business model centers on providing loans to patients for a variety of treatments, including plastic surgery, fertility, veterinary, and dental procedures. Welli's platform allows for loan pre-approval in minutes within the clinic, streamlining the process for both patients and healthcare providers. Funds are disbursed directly to the medical practice, which mitigates credit risk and eliminates payment delays for the clinics. This model has led to partner clinics reporting up to a 40% increase in procedures performed. Welli generates revenue through the interest and fees associated with the loans it provides. The company has financed over $12 million in treatments across a network of more than 1,500 clinics and professionals in Colombia.
In June 2025, Welli announced it had raised $25 million in a Series A funding round, bringing its total funding to over $25 million. This capital is earmarked for expansion into other Latin American markets, extending loan terms, and launching a new savings product to help patients plan for future medical expenses. The company has already processed loans in over 60 municipalities in Colombia, with loan amounts ranging from $300,000 to $25 million Colombian pesos.
