Meniga is a software company founded in Reykjavík, Iceland in 2009 by Georg Ludviksson and brothers Asgeir Asgeirsson and Viggo Asgeirsson.[1]

Meniga provides digital banking solutions[buzzword], and was one of the first companies to use PFM software in Europe.[2] Meniga was founded in 2009, and has offices in London, Reykjavík, Stockholm and Warsaw.[3]

In June 2023, Dheeraj Soni was appointed as the company's CEO.[4]

Name and origins

The company name is derived from a popular children's song, Eniga Meniga written by Icelandic playwright Ólafur Haukur Símonarson and performed by Icelandic author and musician Olga Guðrún Árnadóttir. The song is a playful ode to the song author's money problems.

Meniga works with many banks in Europe, including Santander,[5] Commerzbank, CSOB, Intesa Sanpaolo, ING, comdirect and mBank. In 2016, the company was working with more than 60 banks.[6] In November 2017, Meniga partnered with Spanish banking concern IberCaja.[7]
