Finli

Finli is a financial technology platform serving two markets. For small and medium-sized businesses it provides a full digital back office — professional invoicing and quoting, payment processing (ACH, credit card, and Apple Pay), customer relationship management, inventory tracking, and autopay. For banks and credit unions it delivers those same tools as a white-labeled offering so financial institutions can attract and deepen small-business relationships, keep deposits, and own their customer data without taking on operational risk. Finli is SOC 2 Type II certified and PCI DSS compliant, and was founded by CEO Lori Shao. Added to the API Evangelist network as a Techstars portfolio company; Finli publishes no public developer API at this time.

Finli is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Payments, Invoicing, and Small Business.

Finli’s developer surface includes pricing, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.
