What we believe in Disruption reaches banking

› Financial data is powerful › But banking in the right context is required!

› Traditional banks are not necessarily the best player to offer certain services

› Now is the right time for change

Problem No access for developers

Service

Banks

>500 days without figo

Existing financial interfaces are:

› Complex & Complicated

› Fragmented

› Differ significantly from each other

› Old-fashioned

As a result:

Service providers often forgo implementation!

Our solution Banking Service Provider

2 days

› Instead of connecting to every single financial source on your own, just use one powerful API for every source (Germany: >98% banks and financial service providers)

› Every type of data and every transaction

› Can be implemented in every service Service
