Fingular Honored at the ABF Fintech Awards 2025 for inDrive Collaboration Project

Fingular ABF Fintech Award 2025 honours the successful partnership between Fingular and inDrive, which has been praised for their joint contributions to innovation in fintech. Asian Banking & Finance gave the award to show how the inDrive collaboration project made it easier for people in emerging markets to get access to financial services and use technology.

Fingular’s recognition stems from its initiative aimed at addressing the pressing issue of the credit gap in emerging markets. Collaborating strategically with Indonesian sharia-compliant peer-to-peer lender Ammana, Fingular and inDrive introduced inDrive.Money, a tailored financial solution specifically designed to benefit drivers across various regions in Indonesia. Through the integrated inDrive application, drivers gain easy access to cash financing capped at 10 million rupiah provided by Ammana, enabling them to enhance their livelihoods while ensuring smooth repayment via ride fares.

Initially piloted in late 2024, the program underwent rigorous testing and refinement before expanding nationwide. Now operational in key urban centers such as Pematangsiantar, Purwakarta, Sukabumi, Makassar, Ternate, Garut, Bali Island, Palembang, Bukittinggi, Surabaya, Bandung, and Jakarta, inDrive.Money has seen significant uptake among drivers, resulting in increased user engagement and widespread satisfaction.

Organised annually by leading publication Asian Banking & Finance, these prestigious awards highlight remarkable contributions made by both fledgling startups and established players alike in shaping the future of finance. The award ceremony for the winners was held on July 8, 2025 at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre.

Max Chernuschenko, CEO of Fingular, commented: “We are deeply honored to be recognized by leading international business awards. In our work, we strive for financial inclusiveness and focus on developing relationships with top partners to provide convenience for our customers. Winning The ABF FinTech Awards 2025 reaffirms that we are moving our business in the right direction.”

Vadim Gurinov, strategic backer of Fingular and prominent Cypriot investor, highlighted: “We create value for our customers by accelerating their involvement in the financial system, the availability and quality of financial services, while introducing innovative and fair customer-centric digital products.”

With the Fingular ABF Fintech Award, the company’s work with inDrive sets a standard for excellence in fintech and inclusive innovation in markets that don’t get enough attention.
