The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Euna Solutions the suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.; Sardine signal quality depends on the SDK being embedded in your own web and mobile clients, so fraud improvements become dependent on your app release cycle and any coverage gap is a blind spot.
  • They diverge on capability: Euna Solutions covers Euna Budget, Sardine covers Device intelligence.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Euna Solutions

  • The suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.
  • No pricing is published at any level and terms are typically multi-year, so budgeting the true cost requires obtaining peer jurisdiction contracts, which is possible but slow.
  • Individual modules face specialists with deeper functionality, so a jurisdiction buying only procurement or only budgeting may get less capability than from a single-product vendor at similar cost.
  • Ownership has changed twice in six years, from a SPAC to private equity, and further change is plausible, which creates roadmap uncertainty over the length of a typical multi-year public sector contract.
  • Grant management depth is oriented to United States federal and state programmes, which makes the product close to useless to public bodies outside that funding system.

Sardine

  • Signal quality depends on the SDK being embedded in your own web and mobile clients, so fraud improvements become dependent on your app release cycle and any coverage gap is a blind spot.
  • Behavioural and device telemetry collection needs a documented lawful basis under GDPR, and EU privacy reviews frequently delay rollouts that were scoped as engineering work.
  • Pricing is per session or per active user, so a consumer product with many low value sessions pays in proportion to traffic rather than to fraud exposure.
  • As a younger private company it lacks the enforcement-tested audit history that a bank examiner expects, which makes it a harder sell inside a regulated bank than inside a fintech.
  • It is strongest on session-time signals and weaker as a system of record for long horizon AML typologies, so larger institutions end up running it alongside a traditional monitoring platform rather than instead of one.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Euna Solutions: Is this the same company as GTY Technology?

Yes. GTY Technology rebranded to Euna Solutions in 2023. The individual products came from acquisitions including Bonfire, Questica, eCivis and CityBase.

Sardine: Does Sardine do document verification?

It focuses on device, behavioural and transaction signals, and integrates identity verification providers rather than being one. Treat it as complementary to a KYC vendor.

Euna Solutions: Which product was Bonfire?

Bonfire is now Euna Procurement. Questica became Euna Budget and eCivis became Euna Grants. Ask which underlying codebase a demo is showing.

Sardine: What does it need from us to work?

An SDK in your web and mobile applications plus transaction feeds. Without the client side collector you lose the signals that differentiate it.

Euna Solutions: What does it cost?

Not published. Modules are quoted individually by jurisdiction size and users, usually on multi-year terms and often available through cooperative purchasing contracts.

Sardine: Is pricing published?

No. It is quoted, typically per session or per monthly active user with an annual volume commitment.

Euna Solutions: Do the modules actually share data?

Partially, and it varies by pair. Get the specific integration between the modules you are buying demonstrated on real data before signing.
