TechnologyHow it’s built
A modular core between people and the banks.
Four layers, each with one job. Only the bottom layer moves money — and Finpass doesn’t own it.
Security and trust
Built so nobody has to take our word for it.
The money rules are enforced in the code and in the database — not left to good intentions.
No custody
Finpass never holds, moves or converts money. Payment codes are issued in the agency’s own bank account.
The bank has the last word
Confirmation comes from the bank’s API, its signed notification or the statement. A screenshot never marks anything as paid.
Signed messages only
Every notification from a bank or from WhatsApp is checked against its signature before it’s read.
Nothing pays twice
A retried notification, a re-imported statement or a repeated message is recognised and ignored.
Written once, never edited
Financial entries are never changed. A correction is a new entry, so the history can always be audited.
Encrypted credentials
Each agency’s bank credentials are encrypted at rest with AES-256 and never shown again.
Each agency in its own space
Every query is scoped to one agency. No agency can ever see another’s buyers or payments.
A trail for every action
Who linked, dismissed, amended or terminated what — and when — is recorded.
The rails Finpass orchestrates
Finpass sits above whichever rail the buyer can use. We start with the simplest and add rails as corridors open.
Same currency, instant
A Brazilian abroad pays by Pix from a non-resident account straight into the agency’s account.
LiveAny transfer, matched later
The buyer pays however they can; Finpass matches it from the agency’s bank statement.
LiveA licensed transfer app
The buyer sends with a licensed service such as Wise, using the reference Finpass gives them; Finpass matches the result.
NextPartner inside the flow
A licensed payout partner converts and delivers in guaraníes — needs registration and an AML programme.
PlannedOur own licence
Only once the corridor is proven and the volume justifies it.
With scaleWhy starting simple costs nothing: the passport depends on the payment being confirmed and matched — not on who moved the money. Every level builds the same history.
Different currencies, one obligation. The instalment stays in the contract currency — guaraníes, reais, dollars, euros. A payment in any other currency settles it only when the rate is declared, and the amount paid, the rate and the converted value are all kept on the receipt. Two partial payments, in two currencies, can close the same instalment.
