Founded in mid-2023 by Antoine and Paul-Adrien , Spiko delivers best-in-class cash management products for SMEs, startups, financial advisors and fintechs via an app or API.

Yet the problem we’re solving isn’t French: it’s at least European. Our ambition is to build Europe’s top cash manager in a market worth trillions of euros.
