Our take
Klar is a CNBV SOFIPO (Servicios Financieros Alternativos / Turbofin stack). Eligible view and savings balances sit under the SOFIPO Fondo de Protección up to 25,000 UDIS per person. That is not IPAB. albo is an IFPE. Nu México is a bank conversion. Three different Mexican objects. Keep a banco salary pot. Use Klar if the credit-and-app loop wins.
Mexico City, 2019. Directories say neobank. The Ley de Ahorro y Crédito Popular is the file. Auxi-class SOFIPO failures are why this desk writes the UDIS number in full.
