Company History
Fintecgrate was founded in 2020 by a team of experts in technology, business, finance, and law who have extensive experience in the fintech industry. The founders saw an opportunity to provide innovative and secure solutions for digital identity and payments using facial recognition technology, which is a fast-growing and promising field in Africa and beyond.
Fintecgrate has developed its own proprietary system that integrates with various data sources, banks, and payment service providers to enable users to verify their identity, access their bank accounts, and make secure transactions with just their face and a PIN. Fintecgrate has also established strategic partnerships with OnePipe, a leading open banking platform, and Enfuce, a cloud-based financial services provider, to offer pre-packaged financial products that cater to the needs of various industries and use cases.
Fintecgrate has a wholly owned subsidiary in Nigeria, which is its first market of operation. Nigeria is one of the largest and fastest-growing economies in Africa, with a population of over 200 million people and a high demand for digital services. Fintecgrate aims to expand its presence and reach to other African countries in the near future.
