Signzy has seen strong adoption of its no-code product by financial services companies as they start on their once-in-a-lifetime digital transformation journey,” said Ankit Ratan.
“The solution has been developed from the ground up to allow banks and financial services providers to roll out and offer fintech-like user experiences in a matter of days, not months or years. We are also thrilled that Gaja Capital has come on board in support of our vision,” Ankit said.
The startup said it currently assists its clients with over 10 million customers and works with over 240 financial institutions globally, including India’s top banks such as State Bank of India, ICICI Bank, and BoB Financial.
Speaking on the investment, Gopal Jain, Managing Partner at Gaja Capital, said, “The team at Signzy has really impressed us with their no-code digitalisation platform for the financial services industry, which we believe is the first-of-its-kind anywhere in the world and solves real pain points for their customers.
