INDUSTRIES · 02FinTech engineering, compliance-ready

FinTech software that's safe, fast, and built to pass audits.

Payments, neo-banking, lending, wealth, and regtech — built on infrastructure that meets PCI DSS, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 by default. We've shipped products that move money, score credit, settle trades, and pass quarterly compliance audits without panic.

What we build

FinTech software, six common starting points.

Six of the most common engagements we ship for fintech clients — usually starting as a focused build and growing into a longer engagement.

Payment platforms

Card processing, ACH, UPI, SEPA, wire — with reconciliation, dispute management, settlements, and the boring infrastructure that keeps payments boring.

Neo-banking apps

Mobile-first banking with KYC, onboarding, accounts, cards, transfers, and the regulatory wiring (BIN sponsorship, KYC/AML providers) that makes it legal.

Lending platforms

Loan origination, underwriting workflows, credit scoring (rules-based and ML), repayments, collections, and reporting for consumer and SME lending.

Wealth & trading

Portfolio dashboards, brokerage integrations, robo-advisor logic, tax-lot accounting, and the order-management plumbing behind it.

RegTech & compliance

KYC/AML workflows, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, regulatory reporting (FATCA, CRS, RBI returns), and audit-ready evidence.

FinTech security

Fraud detection, device fingerprinting, behavioural biometrics, real-time risk scoring, and the SOC 2 / ISO documentation auditors actually ask for.

Use cases

Three deployments worth showing.

Real fintech builds where the engineering paid for itself within months.

Neo-bank

Consumer banking app

Mobile banking app with KYC, debit cards, P2P transfers, bill pay, and savings goals — built on a BIN-sponsored card programme with integrated KYC, AML, and fraud monitoring.

SME lending

Loan origination platform

End-to-end lending platform — application, document collection, automated underwriting, e-signature, disbursement, and collections. Replaced a paper-driven process across a national lender.

Reconciliation & settlements

Automated reconciliation across 14 payment processors, banks, and PSPs. Daily settlements, dispute tracking, and a finance dashboard that closes books in hours, not days.

Compliance & standards

Built to pass the audits, not just to ship.

Production-grade payment infrastructure (Stripe, Adyen, Rapyd, Razorpay), banking-as-a-service partners (Stripe Treasury, Marqeta), KYC/AML providers (Onfido, Persona, Sumsub), and the core systems engineering — Postgres for ledgers, Kafka for event streams, idempotency keys for everything that touches money.

How we work

Six steps from fintech workflow to production software.

Most engagements start with a 2-week discovery sprint — a fixed-price scoping exercise that produces a clear plan and budget.

01

Regulatory mapping

Which jurisdictions, which licenses, which audits. Done upfront — because retrofitting compliance is expensive.

02

Architecture & security

Threat modelling, data segregation, key management, audit trails, and SOC 2 / PCI scoping designed into the architecture.

03

Integration design

Payment processors, BaaS, KYC/AML, fraud, identity — chosen on price, latency, coverage, and time-to-integrate.

04

Build & test

Two-week sprints with strict idempotency, double-entry ledgers, and end-to-end test coverage on every money-moving path.

05

Compliance evidence

Audit logs, access reviews, penetration tests, and the documentation auditors need. We produce, you sign.

06

Launch & scale

Phased rollout with rate limits, real-time monitoring, and a tested rollback plan for every release.

Frequently asked

FinTech software questions.

Do you build PCI DSS-compliant systems?

+
Yes. We design around PCI DSS by minimising card data scope — using tokenisation, hosted payment fields (Stripe Elements, Adyen Drop-in), and never storing PANs unless absolutely necessary. For card-on-file or processing scenarios, we deploy on PCI-eligible infrastructure with proper segmentation, encryption, key management, and access controls. We help clients pass PCI audits by producing the policies, evidence, and pen-test results required.

Can you integrate with our existing payment processor or core banking?

+
Yes. We integrate with all major processors (Stripe, Adyen, Braintree, Worldpay, Rapyd, Razorpay, PayU), Banking-as-a-Service providers (Stripe Treasury, Marqeta, Synapse, Solid), and core banking systems (Mambu, Thought Machine, custom legacy). For closed core systems without modern APIs, we build adapters.

How do you handle KYC and AML?

+
We integrate with established KYC/AML providers (Onfido, Persona, Sumsub, Veriff, Trulioo) and build the workflow around them — document capture, liveness, sanctions screening, PEP screening, periodic re-verification, and audit trails. For higher-risk products, we add transaction monitoring with rule-based and ML-based detection.

How long does FinTech software take to build?

+
A neo-banking MVP typically takes 16 to 24 weeks. A focused lending platform takes 12 to 20 weeks. Payment integrations or reconciliation systems can ship in 6 to 12 weeks. FinTech projects take longer than other industries because of compliance, ledger design, and the testing required when money is on the line.

How much does FinTech software cost?

+
FinTech projects at Appsmediaz typically range from $25,000 for a focused integration or MVP to $400,000+ for full neo-banking or lending platforms with multi-jurisdiction compliance. We provide fixed quotes after a 2 to 4 week regulatory and architecture sprint.
