Berlin/Freiburg, 16 February 2026 - The international law firm ADVANT Beiten has provided comprehensive legal and tax advice to Banyan Software on the acquisition of Gini GmbH. The transaction marks another significant milestone in Banyan's international growth strategy and underscores the attractiveness of German software companies for long-term global investors.
Banyan Software was founded in 2016 and regularly acquires growing software companies with the aim of developing them over the long term as part of a buy-and-hold strategy. Banyan Software has locations in Canada, the United Kingdom and the DACH region.
Gini was founded in 2011 and has established itself over more than a decade as a trusted provider of document and payment AI platforms. Among other things, its solutions simplify invoice payments, automate data capture and are firmly anchored in the work processes of leading financial institutions. Under Banyan's new ownership, Gini will continue to expand its market presence, particularly in the banking sector, private health insurance and e-commerce.
Following the transaction, the company's location and product development will continue.
ADVANT Beiten regularly advises Banyan Software on the implementation of its growth strategy in the DACH region, most recently in June 2025 on the acquisition of star/trac.
