What is Fintoc?
Filling in the operational gaps a Latam payments API needs to graduate from PSP to treasury platform.
Fintoc is in steady operational-buildout mode: monthly PDF statements, downloadable transfer receipts, programmable min/max amount rejection rules, a saved-recipients book, and CLABE lifecycle management for Mexico (a critical bit since CLABE quotas are scarce). The bigger checkout move — adding card payments alongside bank transfers in Chile, plus Apple Pay — landed just before this window and is now being polished.
What is Stigg?
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.

Fintoc
1.7FINANCE
Filling in the operational gaps a Latam payments API needs to graduate from PSP to treasury platform.
◆ Current state
Fintoc is in steady operational-buildout mode: monthly PDF statements, downloadable transfer receipts, programmable min/max amount rejection rules, a saved-recipients book, and CLABE lifecycle management for Mexico (a critical bit since CLABE quotas are scarce). The bigger checkout move — adding card payments alongside bank transfers in Chile, plus Apple Pay — landed just before this window and is now being polished.
◆ Where it's heading
The roadmap is widening from payment initiation toward full treasury infrastructure. Recipient management, statements, and CLABE garbage collection are all the kind of features customers ask for once they are actually running their corporate flows on the platform — Fintoc is responding to that pull rather than chasing a strategic pivot. Mexico-specific releases are landing more often, suggesting that market is ramping faster than Chile.
◆ Prediction
Expect Apple Pay to extend to Mexico next, deeper conciliation and reconciliation tooling for the Treasury cluster, and new endpoints around partial CLABE pools that ease quota pressure for high-volume Mexican customers.
Stigg
7.5FINANCE
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
◆ Current state
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.
◆ Where it's heading
Stigg is placing its billing engine at the points where AI agents spend money: the orchestrator, the gateway and credit reservation before each operation. Billing-backend breadth, now Airwallex invoicing, keeps pace in the background.
◆ Prediction
Expect more gateway and orchestrator integrations in the Agent SDK and its move out of beta. Billing backends will likely keep widening around Airwallex and its peers.
