About Spike

Spike is a Cape Town-based fintech that provides APIs for South African financial data. It automates the acquisition and analysis of banking data for client verification and lending approvals.

Financial institutions use Spike's interface to get permission-based, direct access to client banking data from multiple sources, such as bank statements and transactions, once the account holder grants access. This helps lenders and other institutions verify clients and make credit decisions faster than with manually uploaded documents. The website details its features and security.
