Inc. revealed today that Sunbit, the company building financial technology for everyday expenses, ranks No. 638 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“To have been included for three years running on the Inc. 5000 list is a testament to the value we offer customers and merchants,” said Arad Levertov, CEO of Sunbit. “Our strategy and focus, technology, world-class support, and no-fee policies work together. As a result, we’re changing the consumer finance experience for the better. Objective data-driven metrics like those used by Inc. to identify the fastest-growing businesses in America demonstrate that doing the right thing can also be a great business decision. I am thankful to our team, who make it all possible.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
For complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, location, and other criteria, go to www.inc.com/inc5000. All 5000 companies are featured on Inc.com starting Tuesday, August 13, and the top 500 appear in the new issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 20.
“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”
Sunbit recently made its largest co-branded credit card announcement, in partnership with Ollie’s Bargain Outlet, which selected Sunbit to power its first retail card.
In addition, Sunbit recently announced it has grown to more than 50% of the auto services and repair market with its buy-now, pay-over-time technology. Since launching in the auto services sector, the company has facilitated $1.7 billion in revenue while helping more than 1.8 million auto dealership customers get back on the road and stay there.
Other recent milestones include a slate of awards from earlier this year, including a top 10% placement on The Financial Times’ list of The Americas’ Fastest Growing Companies 2024 and #3 among the Fintech, Financial Services & Insurance companies represented. The company was also named a Best Startup Employer (Forbes) and the recipient of the Best Consumer BNPL Platform (Fintech Breakthrough) award for 2024.

Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
