Lissi GmbH Raises €3.5 Mn in Round led by Ventech

The funding round also included BM H Beteiligungs Managementgesellschaft Hessen and existing investors, including main incubator (Commerzbank Group) and Ninepointfive Ventures.

Lissi will use the new funding to speed up the development and rollout of its digital identity solutions across Europe. The company helps businesses and organizations connect with the European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet and securely manage digital credentials.

The funding comes at a time when more businesses need secure and trusted digital identity solutions that follow eIDAS rules. This demand is also increasing because the new EU Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR) will start applying in July 2027.

Today, about 90% of Lissi's customers are from the financial sector, including banks, insurance companies, payment service providers, and trust service providers. Companies such as itsme and Commerzbank are among Lissi's customers.

"Financial institutions need solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing IT environments while allowing them to retain full control over customer data. Our platform has been built to meet these requirements: it is eIDAS-compliant, flexible to deploy and aligned with the security and compliance standards of the financial sector. The trust placed in us by leading banks and financial service providers demonstrates the market demand for this approach," said Helge Michael, CEO and Co-Founder of Lissi.

Founded in 2019, Lissi develops software that helps organizations connect EUDI Wallets and verifiable credentials to their digital services. This makes it easier to use secure digital identity solutions.

The company mainly works with banks and other financial institutions. It helps them build digital identity systems that follow eIDAS rules and work smoothly across different platforms.

The funding also shows Lissi's commitment to building a strong and independent digital identity system in Europe. The company is backed by investors from Germany, France, and Belgium.

With partners across the European Union, Lissi aims to provide secure and interoperable digital identity technology. It positions itself as an independent European technology provider that supports the rollout of digital identity infrastructure across the region.
