The German fintech company rolls out payment and trading platform while expanding AI features ahead of Q4 release.
It joins growing competition from Coinbase, Robinhood and others racing to build comprehensive platforms that could replace traditional banking relationships.
The NAGA
Group (XETR: N4G)
launched its next-generation financial platform today (Tuesday), joining a
growing field of companies racing to build comprehensive "super apps"
that combine banking, trading and payment services.
The
Hamburg-based firm said its NAGA ONE platform will unify payments, investing
and trading functions when it becomes available for download in the fourth
quarter. The app replaces NAGA's existing payment service and includes personal
bank accounts, debit cards and instant trading account funding.
NAGA Launches Financial “Super
App” as Fintech Race Intensifies
The initial
NAGA ONE rollout focuses on core payment features from the company's NAGA Pay
app, which is being discontinued. Users will access personal IBAN accounts,
virtual and physical debit cards, and SEPA transfers through the unified
platform.
The company
said it will add cryptocurrency services in later updates, including digital
wallets, spot trading and staking options. NAGA operates in over 100 countries
and offers trading services for stocks and digital assets.

"We're
not just launching another financial app," said CEO Octavian Patrascu.
"We are delivering on our vision of a truly unified platform where
payments, trading, and investing come together seamlessly."
The modular
approach allows NAGA to expand features gradually while supporting
international growth plans. Future versions will include multi-currency
accounts and rewards programs.
NAGA is
simultaneously expanding
artificial intelligence capabilities across its platform. AI-powered social
agents already provide market insights on the company's NAGA Feed, with plans
for interactive Q&A features and personalized commentary.
The firm
aims to introduce a "Trading Super Assistant" by 2026 that would
guide users through the entire trading process, from onboarding to execution.
AI also powers marketing campaigns across WhatsApp, email and social media
platforms.
The
technology integration extends to operational functions, with AI-driven
automation improving customer support and back-office efficiency, according to
the company.
The newest announcement,
however, did not spark much enthusiasm among shareholders, as NAGA’s shares on
Tuesday remained at EUR 0.65, down more than 90 percent from their pandemic-era
highs.
Super App Competition
Heats Up
The
financial super app concept has gained momentum as companies seek to expand
beyond their core services. PayPal
has offered integrated savings, shopping and cryptocurrency features since
2021, while Warsaw-based broker XTB positions itself as
an "all-in-one" fintech platform.
Regulatory
support has boosted the trend, particularly in cryptocurrency. SEC Chairman
Paul Atkins recently endorsed
"super-app" trading platforms that combine multiple services,
calling for rules that "increase choice for market participants."
The push
faces resistance from traditional banks concerned about losing customers to
comprehensive digital platforms. However, partnerships between crypto companies
and established financial institutions suggest parts of the banking sector are
adapting to the shift.
Last month,
NAGA
reported revenues of EUR 32.2 million for the six months ended June 30, an
increase of 2 percent from EUR 31.6 million a year earlier. Net revenues rose 3
percent to EUR 28.9 million, while EBITDA advanced 8 percent to EUR 3.0
million, despite higher marketing expenses.

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
