In a world where markets move in milliseconds and data determines destiny, Finage emerged from a simple yet radical question: What if accessing reliable financial information was as easy as making a single API call?
Behind the screens of today’s trading platforms, analytical dashboards, and fintech apps lies a quiet revolution—one led by companies like Finage, a UK-based financial data provider that is reshaping how businesses and developers interact with global markets. But unlike many data firms built for the few, Finage was built for everyone—startups, institutions, developers, traders, and curious minds. And it all started with a clear vision: to democratize access to real-time and historical financial data.
“We didn’t want to just sell data. We wanted to empower ideas,” says one of the founders. “Whether you’re building a new trading app or researching the history of a stock, we wanted you to have everything you need in one place, without friction.”
At its core, Finage is an API-first company. That means all of its powerful market data—stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, commodities, indices, ETFs—is available in a developer-friendly JSON format, ready to integrate into any application. With a single, unified API, users can access real-time quotes, historical price data, financial statements, exchange rates, and much more.
But what truly sets Finage apart is its human-first approach in a highly technical world. While the backbone of the company is built on low-latency infrastructure, machine learning algorithms, and global exchange connectivity, the heart of the company is service and simplicity.
Finage serves more than 50,000 users globally, ranging from solo developers to enterprise-level fintech companies. Some use it to backtest trading strategies. Others use it to power charting tools or deliver investment insights. What unites them all is the need for clean, consistent, and trustworthy data—and that’s exactly what Finage delivers.
“We don’t believe in gatekeeping information,” says the team. “Financial data shouldn’t be locked behind paywalls or enterprise contracts. It should be scalable, affordable, and accurate.”
Today, Finage covers over 70 stock exchanges, 170+ forex pairs, and hundreds of cryptocurrency assets. Its platform supports real-time updates, historical data going back decades, and even corporate events like dividends and stock splits.
As financial markets become more dynamic and accessible, so too must the tools we use to understand them. Finage is not just keeping pace—it’s leading the way. With open documentation, flexible pricing, and scalable infrastructure, it’s designed not only for what’s needed today but also for what’s possible tomorrow.
And for the dreamers building the next big thing in finance—whether it’s a robo-advisor, a neobank, or a decentralized finance app—Finage is already one step ahead, providing the data backbone their innovation requires.
