I’m incredibly proud reveal our new brand identity as Finaro,” Igal continued.

“Branding is much more than just colours, logos and slogans – it’s about the essence of our company and how we are presented to the world externally. When developing our new brand Finaro, we crystalized our essence, and it was critical to establish our identity as a company that cares about its customers and can deliver the outstanding,” explains Achiya Fried, Chief Commercial Officer of Finaro, “We go the extra mile in flexibility and we co-create solutions with our clients, by providing cutting edge, multidimensional payments solutions, that untangle the complexity of payments. Our new brand, Finaro, reflects just that.”
