Customers

Today we will talk about two of our current customers which are using our platform successfully.

Cíclica

Cíclica, founded by Angie Sánchez and Maria Laura Gutierrez, is an affordable menstrual cup that's easy to use and made with 100% medical grade silicone. It can be worn for up to 12 hours without leaks or odors and is safe to keep in for up to 10 years! Also, 4Geeks Payments is the first payment gateway that allows you to accept payments in real-time, without requiring your customers' credit card details even before the transaction has been completed (i.e., pre-authorization).

This technology can be used not only for e-commerce but also with physical shops or restaurants where cashless transactions are required. This is the main reason why Cíclica contacted us and decided to use our platform as their payment platform.
