Sunbit Recognized for Consistent, Sustainable Expansion in a Volatile Fintech Landscape

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today revealed that Sunbit has been ranked No. 62 on its sixth annual Inc. Regionals: Pacific list – the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the Pacific. The region includes California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, and Alaska.

Arad Levertov, CEO and Co-founder of Sunbit, said, “Southern California is where we planted ten years ago. We’re proud to be recognized among the region’s strongest businesses and to continue giving back to the communities that help us grow. This recognition belongs to our partners, our merchants, and our team, who remain deeply committed to making financial experiences better and more accessible for consumers.”

An extension of the national Inc. 5000 list, the Regionals list offers a data-driven look at the independent small businesses driving growth across the Pacific economy. Companies on this year’s list demonstrate exceptional revenue expansion, resilience, and job creation during a challenging economic period.

Between 2022 and 2024, these 134 private companies had a median growth rate of 94 percent; by 2024, they’d also added 7,503 jobs and $2.5 billion to the region’s economy.

Shai Terem, Chief Financial Officer of Sunbit, said, “From day one, Sunbit has deliberately targeted sustainable and profitable growth. By leveraging intelligent, AI-powered operations, Sunbit has built a resilient business that continues to scale efficiently. Year-over-year recognition on the Inc. Regionals list validates that disciplined approach and proves that vision paired with strong execution delivers lasting results.”

In the past year, Sunbit has also been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 for the third consecutive year, recognized among Forbes’ Best Startup Employers, and seen its CEO and Co-founder Arad Levertov named EY US Entrepreneur of the Year for Greater Los Angeles.

“The honorees on this year’s Inc. Regionals list achieved exceptional growth at a time when the odds were against them. Amid inflation, supply chain disruptions, and ongoing economic uncertainty, they didn't just persevere – they innovated, adapted, and thrived. Their resilience made them standouts in their industries and true growth engines in their regions,” said Bonny Ghosh, editorial director at Inc.

Methodology

The Inc. Regionals lists are ranked according to percentage revenue growth over two years. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2022. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2024. (Since then, a number of companies on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2022 is $100,000; the minimum for 2024 is $1 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
