Thyngs was founded on a vision of the future that’s playing out today
Cashless payments and touch-free commerce available anywhere in the world using nothing more than a mobile phone.


We believe in strengthening the bond between the physical and digital worlds, securing success for every brand.
Data drives digital success, but real-world interactions have a greater, lasting and more memorable impact.
Meet our Founder & CEO
Dr Neil Garner
Our story began with the insight that a cashless society isn’t good for everyone
“I realised that a cashless society was going to have a huge impact on charities relying on traditional cash collection. My ambition was to use my knowledge and experience in proximity marketing and payments to create a low-cost, sustainable solution. We began turning objects into digital points of sale using smartphone technology and connected them via an all-in-one platform. Today we work with global charities and brands.”
Neil Garner, proximity payments and marketing pioneer. Founder of Thyngs.
We’re coders, designers, proximity payments pioneers, charity specialists & lovely people

We’re delighted that we’ve been successful in securing a grant from the Growth Through Innovation Fund that is part of the wider New Anglia Business Growth Programme. The grant is helping Thyngs invest in innovation, research and development.
