Founded in 2013, Lydia solutions has quickly become the reference for payment between friends. The French fintech has gained widespread recognition thanks to this feature, and today boasts over 7 million users.
Now, Lydia Solutions is reaching a new milestone: after launching our new Lydia app in early April, 100% dedicated to friend-to-friend repayments and pots, we're unveiling our new app today: Sumeria. It's the start of a new era, in which we intend to create the banking experience that customers crave.
We're committed to creating an application that enables every user to simplify their day-to-day relationship with money management.
We're agile but thoughtful and demanding; creative and ambitious but pragmatic. We're not afraid to break what we've struggled to build the day before, if it's to do better. We talk little, but we build.
We look for talent to inspire us and whom we inspire.
If helping millions of people every day is important to you, join us and let's design tomorrow's bank together.
The name Lydia comes from the kingdom of Lydia (part of present-day Turkey), where the first coins were minted in the 7th century BC. Coins made of electrum, a natural alloy of gold and silver found in abundance in the river Pactolus, brought wealth to the kingdom.
The last and most famous king of Lydia was none other than Croesus. "Pactole" and "Cresus" are terms that have gone down in history and are commonly used to signify wealth.
The choice of the name Lydia is therefore a symbolic nod to the most modern payment technology in the history of money.
As for the name Sumeria, it comes from the Sumerian language, one of the oldest attested languages, dating back to at least 2900 BC. It was the language spoken in ancient Mesopotamia.
Why the name Sumeria? For our project to create a major European deposit bank, we chose an ambitious name: Sumeria. The Sumerians invented writing to keep their accounts on clay. 55 centuries later, we're carrying on this legacy with a reliable, durable and practical application.
