How to get your fintech startup into Fintech News Singapore
TL;DR
Fintech News Singapore (fintechnews.sg) is the Singapore site of the Fintech News Network, launched in 2015. Startups incorporated in Singapore can join its yearly Fintech Map through a form that shows no fee, while a guaranteed press release costs €445. It suits fintech founders who sell to banks, payment firms and investors in Southeast Asia.
What is Fintech News Singapore?
Fintech News Singapore reports on fintech (financial technology): payments, digital banking, wealthtech (software for investing), regtech (software for regulatory checks), blockchain and AI in finance. It belongs to the Fintech News Network, which runs sister sites from Malaysia, the Philippines, Hong Kong and Indonesia to Australia, the UAE, Switzerland and the Nordics. New articles went up on 29 October 2026, so the site is active.
The startup form feeds the Fintech Map, a yearly chart of the local scene published with the network's Singapore Fintech Report. The SG Fintech Directory, built from the 2025 report, lists 495 companies in 14 categories.
Who should submit to Fintech News Singapore?
- Fintech startups incorporated in Singapore. The form states that it does not handle requests from companies without local incorporation.
- Founders in payments, digital banking, lending, insurtech, wealthtech, regtech, cross-border payments or regulated crypto services, the categories on the form.
- Skip it if your startup works outside finance. If you are registered elsewhere, use the network's site for your market, such as fintechnews.my or fintechnews.ph.
How much does Fintech News Singapore cost?
- Fintech Map submission: free. Neither the page nor the form asks for payment.
- Press release: €445 per release, paid inside the form, with social media shares, a newsletter slot and SEO reporting included.
- Sponsored articles and advertising: the site runs posts labelled "Sponsored", and the media kit lists no prices. Ask partners@fintechnews.sg for a quote.
- Editorial coverage: free. Pitches go to editorial@fintechnews.sg, and the editors decide.
How do you share your startup on Fintech News Singapore?
- Open the Submit Your Fintech Startup page and scroll to the Fintech Map Submission Form.
- Pick your request: a place in the next edition of the Fintech Map, a logo update, a category change or removal.
- Fill in the required fields: name, position, company, phone, email, office address, website, a one-line description, products, founding year and company size, then tick your categories and upload your latest logo.
- Wait for the next map. The page says the team may contact you to publish articles, request interviews or write reports.
- For news, email editorial@fintechnews.sg. For guaranteed publication, use the press release form: upload a Word file, add images and a preferred date, and pay. Send it 1 to 2 days ahead; the team uploads it on the next working day after payment.
Tips to get more out of Fintech News Singapore
- Write the description the way the form example does: one sentence on who you help and how, such as "We help investors make smarter investment decisions".
- Choose one or two categories. The form asks you not to tick more than needed, and a clean category puts your logo in the right box.
- Pitch the editors with hard facts: funding amount, a licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) or named bank clients.
Our verdict
Fintech News Singapore is the first stop for a Singapore fintech: the map listing is free and puts your company in a report the regional industry reads. Treat the €445 press release as a paid notice, and keep editorial pitches for news with numbers behind it.
