Confidence
Nubank is a well-established, publicly traded financial institution (NYSE: NU) headquartered in São Paulo and regulated by Banco Central do Brasil. The domain has been registered for over 12 years, carries valid SSL from Amazon, and shows zero malware detections across our antivirus network and browser blocklists. The site holds RA1000 maximum reputation on Reclame Aqui with an 8.7/10 score, responding to 99.5% of complaints and resolving 92.3% — a strong indicator of legitimate business operations despite the high absolute complaint count (57,544), which is typical for a financial institution serving 135+ million customers. The evidence package shows Nubank actively publishes anti-scam resources and received an official Fraud Prevention Seal from Brazil's National Confederation of Financial Institutions in 2025. The complaints documented in the evidence relate to third-party scams impersonating Nubank (fake SMS alerts, fraudulent call centers), not the official domain itself.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on nubank.com.br and not a lookalike like n-ubank.com.br.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on nubank.com.br. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • nubank.com.br passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 94/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. nubank.com.br presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M03, expiring in 83 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • nubank.com.br is 12.6 years old, registered on 11/20/2013. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report nubank.com.br as clean.
  • No. nubank.com.br is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • nubank.com.br resolves to an IP operated by Amazon.com, Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • Yes. nubank.com.br sits in the global top-100k on Cloudflare Radar, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. That does not automatically make it safe, but established brands almost always rank here and throwaway scam domains almost never do.
