Handwave is a fintech startup that's been waving at the future since 2022. Our core team comes from deep within the finance and payments industry. As people who know compliance inside and out, we’re fluent in acronyms like PSD2, PCI-DSS, GDPR – you name it. Our mission?
To make everyday transactions feel lighter.
Because let’s face it – checkout shouldn’t feel like a chore.
The digging for your wallet, forgotten loyalty cards, age-check awkwardness, and long lines drive everyone crazy.
Our team is here to wave it all away!
How did we do it? From hardware to software, every part of this full-stack solution was built by our own hands.
Yes, even the hand scanners were built in-house. Our technology is built by industry professionals and powered by AI and innovative palm biometrics. Think vein-matching tech, encrypted IDs, and instant onboarding from your phone.
Our partners and investors believe that with Handwave the future of payments is in safe hands.
We’re backed by some of the top VCs in the region –
Practica Capital, FirstPick, Outlast Fund, and Inovo.vc – bold investors from the Baltics and Poland who believe in a wallet-free future. This year, we’ve also proudly partnered with VISA to bring this experience to life at scale.
