I just received rejection email (non 10%), I’m building a fintech in Brazil & LATAM for Cross Border Payment Processing, small team (9 people, including 3 co-founders), nice traction (from 0 to U$100k+ MRR in 10 months, and 30+ clients) and low costs (U$25k/month).
We are already generating cash (around U$75k/month) and I got 2 recommendations from old friends that was accepted at YC, also some others founders reviewed my application and said it was strong, so I was thinking about having a good interview chance, but not happened.
My primary goal with YC would be the B2B connections (make more business) and also raise faster.
So I was discussing with my co-founders if we should bootstrap or try to raise with VC’s (3 of them reached out to us and we already talked).
Let’s advance and keep building
