Our take
Fidel is tackling the obstacles to accessing customer payment data, making it easier for developers to create smart solutions customers love, without the burden of complex integrations, cost or compliance traditionally found in the payments ecosystem.
The company has developed a suite of APIs that make it easy to link a user's payment card to an app and securely access real-time transactional data through a single access point. A key application is loyalty programs, where users can sign up, earn points rewards and cash back when using their registered card.
Recent funding secured will allow Fidel to continue developing its programmable experiences that facilitate the easy use of payment cards. The company has plans to scale its workforce to meet growing demand in the engineering, sales, and product departments. Indeed, it will accelerate investments into expanding product offerings across identity verification, consent management and payments.
