About

Dyneti makes DyScan, which lets a customer add a payment card by holding it up to their phone's camera. The scan fills in the card details in under a second and checks in real time that the card is genuine, so more checkouts complete and stolen cards are stopped before they turn into chargebacks.

Julia Zheng started the company in 2018 and took it through Y Combinator in early 2019. DyScan has since processed more than 100 million card scans.

Array invested in Dyneti's $2.2M seed round in March 2019, alongside Y Combinator and Shasta Ventures.
