What problems are we solving?

7

Banking interfaces are out-dated

‣ Access to traditional financial service provider is complicated

‣ Maintenance and care is expensive and often not worthwhile for many companies

‣ Security is key for banking services

‣ Interfaces are still national not global

figo enables developers to connect to every financial service provider without specific bank know-how

Digitalization requires speed

‣ Implementation of all financial service providers would require a months long project

‣ Connecting to some specific providers will be very clumsy

‣ Additional comfort features are not even taken into account

‣ Companies are often deciding against a banking implementation due to all these problems

Target groups

8

‣ eCommerce player

‣ SEPA region (35 countries)

Which groups are using the figo API today and will tomorrow?
