About Genome

Better personal, business, and merchant account services at the fingertip length

Introducing Genome

We’ve gathered a team of industry professionals to make banking better for people. Personal, business, and merchant account opening, internal and international money transfers, payment processing, card issuing, and more services – all available in Genome

About Genome

The beginning

Genome, an Electronic Money Institution founded in 2018 and legally registered as UAB “Maneuver LT”. We are based in Vilnius, Lithuania, and are supervised by the Central Bank of Lithuania. In three years we went from a simple Genome e-wallet concept to a multi-leveled financial system that serves both business and personal needs.

Why we created Genome?

People often associate banking with bureaucracy, slow processes, and complicated money operations. So as someone who has been working in the finance industry for years, we wanted to change that. Our main goal was to make banking accessible, as well as easy and safe to use. That’s why we decided to create a product of a new generation, combining technological advances and humane approach

Global access on the go

With Genome, you can perform any operations from onboarding and account management to money transfers and payment processing using just a phone app or a computer. No need to visit banking branches and wait in queues, you can do all this from the office, your home, and on the go. Hence our onboarding process is simple yet secure, making it perfect for people who are new to banking and need a personal account, as well as companies that seek seamless services from business and merchant accounts
