Tribe Capital Partner Arjun Sethi will join Mati’s Board of Directors.

“At Tribe, our primary goal is to identify and amplify generation-defining businesses like Mati,” said Arjun Sethi of Tribe Capital. “Mati is creating an entirely new category of digital reputation tools that build trust between online services and consumers — solving a critical industry challenge. We are thrilled to support Filip and the team as they revolutionize trust-service interactions online.”

Since its launch in 2017, Mati has enabled over 200 trust companies to focus on their core competence without having to build an entire digital reputation stack in-house.

“At an industry level, we’re just scratching the surface of the implications of Mati helping online services ground their interactions in verified user data and eliminate anonymity online, so trust-service builders can launch and scale in a more secure, frictionless way,” said Filip Victor, CEO and co-founder of Mati. “With this investment, we are excited to lead the transition from gig and sharing economy into the ‘trust economy’.”

The new funding will enable Mati to build on its impressive growth, which increased more than four times year on year from 2019. It will strengthen its foothold in Latin America and fuel expansion to other high-growth regions where identity issues prevent widespread access to financial services, gig and sharing marketplaces.

“Latin America is an obvious market for us to tackle first, given the region’s high digital adoption, gig economy growth, and progressive fintech regulation,” Filip Victor said. “Mati’s digital reputation APIs will help gig services better understand and serve their users, even where this identity infrastructure is lacking.”
