Since we launched this publication we’ve been paying a big chunk of our attention to the Spanish fintech startup sector, since companies like Kantox or peerTransfer -among many others- have been doing a remarkable job at disrupting various financial services from our very own country.
To help people understand the size of Spain’s fintech industry, we’ve put together a list of the main fintech sectors and its corresponding startups.
Our coverage of the industry won’t stop here, and in the near future we plan to publish various posts on the challenges local fintech startups face when they decide to be based in Spain (instead of London or Hong Kong, for example), how Spanish regulators impact their activities and other relevant topics.
This list of fintech startups in Spain is not definitive, and we’ll continue to update it regularly. If you feel like we’re missing a certain startup or sector, let us know in the comments.

¿No falta aquí Quaderno?
I don't think invoicing startups should be included in a fintech list. I like Quaderno a lot, tho.
Agree with you @jaimenovoa:disqus. Sorry to bother
Nice list
Also, https://www.grow.ly/
Yo incluiria también: Bankimia.com
I don't think comparison sites should be included in a fintech list.
Jaime,
Why? What is fintech for you?
Why not the financial products comparison sites?
For now I'd rather focus on pure product fintech companies and, maybe in the near future, open the list for more candidates.
Thanks for the suggestions! Will take a look and add them if necessary :)
Yo uso wallo.com y juraría que son de aqui. Bastante buenos además.
Thanks. I just don't think they're a fintech company.
Don't you think they're similar to Fintonic @jaimenovoa:disqus?
My bad. You're right. At first sight it looked to me like invoicing software. Adding it to the list.
That's it :) They analyze your bank movements, really useful
Excelente el listado Jaime, echo en falta a Heyplease, a sociosinversores y seedquick como equitycrowdfunding. las de crowdfunding de recompensa tipo lanzanoso mymajorcamponyu no serían fintech?
Added.
Rocket Internet's new online credit platform, Spotcap, is missing in this list. The company was launched in Spain last October. http://www.spotcap.es
Thanks Aline. Just added it.
Muy buena lista. Además ver a Ahorro.NET aquí me llena de orgullo y satisfacción ;) Muchas gracias Jaime
Younique Money shut down amid a scandal a few months back. In P2P payments I would include Cashually and in receviables management, NoviCap (incorporated in the UK for easier access to funds and resources but main business in Spain, some founders Barcelona-based). Cool company.
