About EYST Technology
EYST Technology is a Tunisian insurtech founded in 2022 by Marwen Amamou, Antoine Vanoverberghe and Arnaud Brodzki. It was built on the idea that the gap between a claim being approved and the policyholder being paid is an engineering problem rather than a regulatory inevitability. Normally, after forms, assessment and approval, a bank transfer arrives days or weeks after the money was needed.
EYST sells a software-as-a-service layer that sits inside an insurer's existing mobile app or web interface. When a claim is approved, the system instantly issues a virtual payment card loaded with the reimbursement amount instead of starting a delayed bank transfer. The policyholder can use the card immediately, including through Google Pay and other digital wallets, for example for a medical emergency or a vehicle repair. The cards can be limited to specific spending categories or approved beneficiaries, which TechScoop says limits fraud at the point of issuance, and real-time transaction monitoring flags suspicious patterns as they happen. TechScoop describes the combination as closer to a claims operating system than a payment tool, with insurers gaining faster settlement, fraud controls and transactional data that can feed underwriting.
In July 2026 EYST secured a six-figure investment from 216 Capital. The exact amount was not disclosed. Dhekra Khelifi, partner at 216 Capital, described the company as addressing a structural challenge in the insurance sector and said the ability to combine payment speed, data use and risk management is a meaningful competitive advantage. Amamou called the deal a shared vision rather than just a financing event.
The money will be used to speed up the product roadmap, including cashback services and deeper integration with insurers' core systems, to expand the sales and data teams, and to prepare for international entry across Europe, the United States, South America, the Middle East and Asia. The engineering team is based in Tunisia, which TechScoop calls an explicit strategic asset in a model of building technical capability at home and scaling abroad.
TechScoop highlights the GCC as relevant to this plan, citing growth in mandatory health and motor cover, expatriate populations and digital adoption, particularly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. In TechScoop's coverage of Tunisia's startup funding, the round was substantially the only tracked deal in the country in July 2026.
