Reveniu

What Reveniu does

Reveniu is a Chilean fintech (legal entity Mecenas SpA) that operates a self-serve subscription and recurring payment platform for small and medium-sized merchants, non-profits, media organizations, and SaaS companies. Founded in 2019 by Miguel Paz and headquartered in Santiago, the company runs with a small team of 1–10 employees and is backed by Fen Ventures and Continuum Ventures.

The platform is built on an API-first architecture that lets merchants generate payment links, automate recurring billing, and manage subscription logic programmatically. A distinguishing technical component is its native integration with Transbank, Chile's dominant card payment processor, and its explicit support for both credit and debit cards — material in a market where roughly 70% of cards are debit. The platform processes payments in Chilean pesos (CLP) and inflation-indexed units (UF), reducing friction for local merchants. Reveniu monetizes via a tiered subscription model: a free Starter tier with a 3% per-transaction fee, a Pro tier at CLP $40,000/month with a 1.5% fee, and custom Enterprise pricing with API access. Revenue mechanics therefore combine a modest recurring SaaS fee with transaction-based take rates on payment volume.

As of August 2022, Reveniu had processed approximately US$2M in cumulative payment volume, with projected 2022 sales of around US$210K. Its customer base is broad and fragmented across verticals — including non-profits (Niños Primero, Fundación Soll), independent media and podcasts (Interferencia, CityLab, 9punto5, Subela), SaaS companies, and recurring service providers (gyms, clubs). The platform was notably adopted by both campaigns in Chile's September 2022 constitutional plebiscite (Apruebo and Rechazo), and is endorsed by the Google News Initiative Latin America as recommended infrastructure for independent journalism.

Direct peers

• Flow.cl: Chilean payment gateway offering card processing and online checkout, directly competing with Reveniu in the domestic market for merchant payment acceptance.
• Kushki: Latin American payment infrastructure provider offering recurring billing, subscription management, and local payment method integration across multiple LatAm countries — closest functional peer at a regional level.
• Conekta: Mexican payment platform with subscription billing and recurring-charge APIs, serving a similar SMB and developer audience with country-localized rails.
• Recurly: Specialized subscription billing and recurring revenue management platform — direct functional peer in subscription lifecycle, dunning, and churn recovery, though globally positioned.
• Chargebee: Subscription billing and revenue management platform serving SaaS and subscription businesses with similar plan management, dunning, and analytics capabilities.

Broad incumbents

• Mercado Pago: Dominant Latin American digital payments platform offering checkout, recurring billing, and POS services as part of a much broader ecosystem — overlapping capability but vastly larger scale.
• Stripe: Global payment infrastructure leader with Stripe Billing for subscriptions — currently expanding localization in Latin America and a long-term competitive threat to Reveniu's SMB and developer segments.
• dLocal: Cross-border payments platform for emerging markets including Chile, operating broader payment orchestration but increasingly adding local merchant-of-record capabilities.

Emerging players

• Bold Commerce: Subscription and checkout tooling for commerce platforms, with overlapping recurring-billing features targeted at SMB and mid-market merchants.

Others

• Transbank: Dominant Chilean payment processor and Reveniu's core infrastructure partner — included because it is both the platform dependency and a potential upstream competitor if it launches competing subscription services.
