Case Study: Brex achieves rapid time-to-market and reduced PCI compliance scope with Very Good Security

Brex - Customer Case Study

Brex, a fintech rebuilding B2B financial services, faced the heavy operational and time costs of PCI compliance and managing sensitive payment data — a pain founder Henrique Dubugras knew well from his prior company. To avoid months (or more) of compliance work and keep aggressive product timelines, Brex partnered with Very Good Security and adopted VGS’s Zero Data approach so they wouldn’t have to directly hold sensitive data or expand compliance scope.

Very Good Security isolated and tokenized Brex’s sensitive data and took on the bulk of PCI/security responsibility, enabling Brex to connect to multiple payment processors and avoid vendor lock‑in. As a result, Brex dramatically accelerated time to market — founded late 2017 and launching its first card in June 2018 — reduced compliance burden, and gained a scalable security partner to help address future regulations like CCPA.
