Frekuent recognized among the 50 fastest-growing technology scale-ups in Spain

It’s not just about growing.
It’s about scaling.
Frekuent has been recognized as one of the 50 fastest-growing technology scale-ups in Spain as part of the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 program.
A recognition that puts the spotlight on execution, scalability, and proven market growth.

What is the Deloitte Technology Fast 50?

The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 program identifies, recognizes, and gives visibility to the technology companies with the highest revenue growth in recent years within Spain’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.
It doesn’t reward a good idea. It rewards execution, scalability, and resilience. It distinguishes companies that have achieved sustained and significant revenue growth over the past four years, backed by innovation, technology, and scalable business models.
Being part of this ranking means joining a group of companies that are redefining their industries and proving their models work at scale.
In an environment where many startups promise but few consolidate, this recognition validates measurable and sustainable results.

Leading the payment and loyalty solutions vertical for unattended retail

At Frekuent, we operate in a highly specific vertical with enormous potential:
Payment solutions for unattended retail.
In other words, fintech technology designed specifically for self-service and unattended retail environments. From laundromats, vending machines, and car wash stations to arcades, amusement machines, and beyond.
Businesses without a counter.
Without staff at the point of sale.
But with a real customer experience.
Our approach is clear: transform payments and help operators keep customers coming back.
Because in unattended retail, payment is not the end of the process. It’s the connection point, and the beginning of the next purchase.

Scalability in a traditionally fragmented sector

Unattended retail has historically been a fragmented sector, with poorly integrated solutions and limited digitalization.
Scaling here doesn’t simply mean selling more devices.
It means redesigning the technological infrastructure of the sector.

Real digitalization in unattended retail

Digitalization is not about installing a terminal.
It’s about generating data, visibility, and real-time operational control.
Operators need to understand what’s happening at every point of sale, optimize pricing, launch personalized promotions, analyze performance, and reduce friction.
That’s where real transformation begins.

Integrated technology: hardware, software, and data

Scalability comes from integration.
Connecting hardware, software, and data into a single platform allows operators to centralize operations, simplify management, and make decisions based on real information.
It’s not about adding layers.
It’s about building a coherent system.

Operator experience as a competitive advantage

In a self-service environment, every interaction matters.
Reducing payment friction, increasing recurrence, and delivering a seamless experience directly impact revenue.
Operator and end-user experience are no longer optional.
They are competitive differentiators.

Scale-up mindset: building to grow

Being a scale-up is not a status. It’s a mindset.
It means designing every decision around:

  • Sustainable growth
  • International expansion
  • Standardization without losing agility
  • Continuous innovation

At Frekuent, we build technology designed to grow alongside our operators. We don’t start from legacy systems. We design infrastructure specifically for unattended retail.

More than an award: a market signal

This recognition is not just an internal milestone. It’s a clear signal to the market

  • Unattended retail is evolving.
  • Specialized fintech is essential.
  • Payment is a growth engine, not just a transaction tool.

Being part of the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 confirms that the sector is entering a new phase, and we are leading that transition.

What comes next

Being among the 50 fastest-growing technology scale-ups is not just recognition. It’s validation of our model.
It means our technology scales.
It means our approach works.
And it means unattended retail is ready for a new generation of payment infrastructure.
For our operators, this translates into something tangible: greater stability, stronger innovation capacity, and a platform designed to support long-term growth.
We will continue investing in technology, expansion, and solutions that don’t just process payments, but generate recurrence, data, and competitive advantage.
Because growing isn’t enough.
You have to scale with vision.
Excited for what’s next.
