About the client

Who Finform is

Finform is a Swiss-based RegTech provider specializing in digital onboarding and Compliance-as-a-Service (CaaS), serving banks, asset managers, and wealth advisors across Europe. Through fintech software development, Axon Active supports the delivery of Swiss RegTech software that enables institutions to provide regulated, scalable client verification services across the full customer lifecycle.

With Axon Active, Finform focused on digital onboarding software development for its core client onboarding platform—a web application that replaces fragmented manual processes with a secure, end-to-end digital flow. The system ingests personal and financial data, automates document collection and verification, enforces KYC and regulatory checks, and pushes validated data into client institutions’ core banking systems for final account activation, significantly reducing manual intervention. Axon Active’s Vietnam team delivers consistent engineering capacity, while Swiss governance ensures adherence to Finform’s quality, security, and strategic standards.

How we work together

Embedded engineering collaboration

Axon Active operates as a dedicated development team, embedded within Finform’s engineering organization to ensure tight alignment and predictable delivery. The collaboration follows two-week sprints with joint planning sessions, daily stand-ups, stakeholder reviews, and retrospectives to maintain continuous alignment.

Cross-border cooperation between Vietnam and Switzerland is enabled through overlapping working hours for real-time communication, supported by asynchronous workflows to sustain progress across time zones. Operational transparency is reinforced through centralized documentation, consistent status tracking, and clearly defined escalation paths. A dedicated, long-term team structure further ensures deep domain expertise, strong continuity, and reduced onboarding overhead over time.

What we do

Building a secure and scalable onboarding platform

The platform is the result of digital onboarding software development tailored to the needs of regulated financial institutions. As a custom fintech software development project, it provides a guided, end-to-end onboarding journey. Bank advisers can seamlessly gather clients’ personal data, upload verification documents, and complete automated compliance checks. When required, the application triggers a manual review process, allowing compliance specialists to validate each onboarding before account activation in core banking systems.

Full-stack engineering

A full-stack engineering team delivers end-to-end solutions using Nuxt.js and Java backend services. Continuous workflow orchestration, robust API integration, and precise UI alignment ensure predictable delivery and smooth interaction across the onboarding lifecycle.
