About Vivid
We believe managing finances should be simple and accessible for everyone. Whether you’re a young entrepreneur or an established business owner, your focus should be on growing your business, not dealing with complex, outdated banking providers. That’s why we created Vivid — a one-stop solution for all your personal and business financial needs.
Made in Germany. Europe-based.
Vivid was founded in 2019 in Berlin — the vibrant heart of Germany’s fintech scene. Today, we’ve grown into a modern European financial group with offices and tech hubs across the continent, including Amsterdam, Luxembourg, and Limassol. We are regulated in multiple EU member states and provide our services both locally and cross-border within Europe.

Your money is safe with us
Safely stored
Your money is safeguarded in full: in segregated client-money accounts with European partner banks and in a Qualifying Money Market Fund (QMMF), which may only hold low risk, highly liquid assets. Unlike traditional banks, we don’t use client funds for risky loans.
Overseen by European financial authorities
All our services are provided by the Vivid Money group: Vivid Money SA is regulated by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) of Luxembourg and Vivid Money B.V. is regulated by the Dutch Authority for Financial Markets (AFM).
Secured against our insolvency
Your funds are kept separate from our own and safeguarded in full. In the unlikely event of Vivid Money S.A. becoming insolvent, your balance would not form part of its estate and would be claimable by you - there is no upper limit. On top of that, funds we hold for you in our client-money account at Natixis (France) are covered by the French statutory deposit guarantee, up to €100,000 per customer, if that bank were to fail. That cover applies to the funds held in that account, not to your full balance, and money market fund holdings are not deposits and are not covered. The funds in your account are yours, and yours alone.
Superior payment security
We comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards to protect your payment information.
2-step authentication
With 3D Secure and two-step authentication we ensure no payment is made without your authorisation.
GDPR compliance
Our servers are securely hosted in the European Union, ensuring full compliance with GDPR regulations.
Deposit protection
Your balance is safeguarded in full by Vivid Money S.A. Funds at our partner bank Natixis (France) also carry the French deposit guarantee, up to €100,000 per customer.
