Finlake is a cloud-native core banking platform for banks, microfinance banks and fintechs, running on AWS. Banks use it to run their entire operation, from accounts and lending to KYC, mobile and USSD banking. Lenders, marketplaces and other businesses can also use individual modules, such as KYC for customer onboarding.
Finlake is a cloud-native core banking and financial services platform from SoftGEM, an AWS Advanced Tier Partner with the AWS Financial Services and Generative AI Competencies.
It is fully modular. A bank can run its entire operation on Finlake, and a marketplace, e-commerce platform, lender, cooperative or HR provider can plug in just the module it needs.
Available modules
Core banking application: customers, accounts, deposits, transactions and general ledger
KYC onboarding: verify and onboard customers, merchants, vendors or users, with identity checks built into your sign-up flow
Loan portfolio management: from origination through disbursement, repayment and collections
Corporate internet banking: including bulk payments and payroll
Mobile banking and USSD: reach both smartphone and feature-phone users
Card management
Conversational banking: an AI chatbot on WhatsApp that lets customers make payments and get support through chat
Terminal management: for agent and POS networks
One platform, one view of the customer
Every module runs on one shared data model. Start with one module and add others later, and your teams keep a single view of each customer, with no extra vendors to integrate.
Delivered as SaaS on AWS

Finlake uses a single usage-based pricing dimension. You pay for each block of 10,000 API calls made to the platform. There are no fixed tiers or instance sizes to choose from. Your cost rises in step with how many API calls your institution generates. The more your banking activity grows, the more blocks you consume. This approach ties your spending directly to actual platform usage rather than a flat commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one billable API call to the Finlake platform?
An API call is a single request your application makes to the platform. The platform groups core banking, KYC, loan management, corporate internet banking, and mobile banking functions. Each request against these modules counts toward your total. You are billed per block of 10,000 calls.
Does my bill rise if I add more Finlake modules like loan management or KYC?
Billing tracks API call volume, not the number of modules you adopt. You can start with specific modules and add more over time. Adding modules only raises cost if it increases the API calls your institution generates. Low-traffic modules add little to your total.
How is a partial block of API calls billed if I don't reach exactly 10,000?
Billing is metered per block of 10,000 API calls. The pricing table defines no separate per-call rate below a full block. For how partial blocks round or accrue within a billing cycle, contact the vendor to confirm the exact metering behavior for your account.
