About
FinGo is a biometric identity authentication company that uses world-first finger vein mapping technology to enable secure payments, age verification, access control, and identity authentication. The platform scans each person's unique internal vein pattern, creating a biometric identifier that cannot be traced or copied, making it more secure and inclusive than traditional authentication methods. FinGo offers three core products: FinGoVerify for identity and age verification, FinGoPay for biometric payments at retail and hospitality venues, and FinGoPass for physical access control to buildings, events, and transportation. The technology eliminates the need for cards, documents, or devices, requiring only a finger for authentication. FinGo serves use cases including retail payments, self-serve kiosks, membership programs, bank-to-bank transfers, stadium access, and health passport verification. The platform is designed to be inclusive regardless of geography, culture, age, background, or socio-economic status. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, FinGo has raised approximately $26 million in Series B funding from investors including Blue Star Capital, with a team of 19 employees.
