Our take
Founded in 2021, Spade is a universal transaction enrichment API built for fintech companies. Often there is a vast amount of data that cannot be tracked or is not provided within transactions. Sometimes the name used isn't the company name, the geo data is different to where you paid etc. This is where Spade wants to build a new generation in fintech infrastructure.
The company has developed an API that enhances all the data details around financial activity, fraud detection, merchant matching, and category organisation. These are all super appealing features for Spade customers to get to know their users’ spending habits better and keep internet banking secure.
Spade is an early stage company but attracted considerable Series A funding when just two years old, demonstrating the need for this product in the market. Spade plans to use its funding to expand its team and develop its merchant intelligence products.
