Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Fimple is a technology company that develops a composable, cloud-native core banking platform for banks, fintech companies and other financial institutions. The platform provides a suite of banking and lending modules that can be configured rapidly and deployed either in the cloud or on-premise, and includes pre-configured, out-of-the-box support for Sharia-compliant finance. The company frames its approach around a "Financial Function as a Service" (FFaaS) principle, with a Transaction Composer component that lets banks and financial institutions build products and services and distribute them to their own customers and fintech partners.

The company was founded in January 2022 and is headquartered in London, United Kingdom, with founder presence in Istanbul, Turkey. As of its February 2025 Series A announcement, its platform was in use by Turkish financial institutions including Aytemiz Investment Bank, Misyon Bank, Hedef Investment Bank and Q Investment Bank, alongside clients in five other countries.

Founding story

Business model

Fimple licenses its core banking platform to financial institutions, offering a SaaS-architecture, cloud-based system with the option of on-premise deployment, structured as modular banking and lending capabilities that customers configure into their own products.

Traction

By February 2025 the platform was serving clients across six countries in total, including Turkish institutions Aytemiz Investment Bank, Misyon Bank, Hedef Investment Bank and Q Investment Bank, with operations established in Egypt and GCC countries.
