The unusual name makes it fairly easy to do Google News search and the results are surprisingly bad. Yes, there are a good number of references. But all these Scoop references go to press release-like announcements. And Gnews search for the company name for yields next to nothing. There also seems to be some misleading edits here, too. The first ref is identified as Live Mint, which is an Indian news site. But it's not. It's a link to http://www.franchise.co.nz/article/2327-flo2cash-br-a-business-doing-business?cat_id=23, authored by Flo2cash. See also related Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ankur Dharmani, for the CEO's article, by same editor. Something's fishy here. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:40, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

- delete as it stands per WP:CORPDEPTH, and I can't find any sources actually about the company. I'm surprised and disconcerted by this, however - they're clearly a company of some standing and the sort of thing one might look up. Can no-one turn up sources on them? - David Gerard (talk) 21:49, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
::Maybe the unsupported claims made in the article are exaggerated? I'm not as sure what their standing is, at this point. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 22:51, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

;Regarding Reconsideration
Hi every one Anup [Talk], Shawn in Montreal (talk), David Gerard (talk)
Okay going towards everything yes it's me all behind everything making an article on flo2cash and Ankur Dharmani but as described about Dharmani, before on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ankur Dharmani. I apologize and i'm trying to fix it as i saw a news few days back on Facebook then i Googled and i thought it's a good thing/article to start a page on flo2cash because in New Zealand there was no article on Fintech companies and it's one of best futuristics companies based in New Zealand as concerned towards fin tech (let me tell you i'm not in any relation of the company and person, it's only my reflection and my work).
But later in my absence someone else edited the flo2cash i don't know since i'm bit new on Wikipedia, not a pro so i don't know how to get information about the USER who edited so that i can warn him/her. Yes Live Mint was a mistake as i copy pasted some of my references form my previous article as i forgot to make correction. After making the page on flo2cash i thought it's good to even write an article on his CEO(as described before), yes bit low with the data but yes now i have everything for consideration(it's not for the purpose of advertisement). So pardon me for everything i will fix and would like to request to make a reconsideration for both article for not putting it for deletion, for instance please help in making contribution towards the articles.

- True, there was content added by what appears to be a different editor. Still, it doesn't change the next to nonexistent Gnews results. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:29, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
Sir Shawn in Montreal (talk) please help beside nonexistent Gnews results.So that it not get considered for deletion Yes i agree with the Ankur Dharmani page but the flo2cash article can be considered.User talk:Afrojack255 —Preceding undated comment added 00:44, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
:Isn´t there some more reliable coverage in local media? Sources in the article are too weak (eg. Scoop will publish nearly anything New Zealand related). If you want to save this article, you need "reliable sources" - eg. paper (or online) magazines with editorial staff. Pavlor (talk) 09:37, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom: the weak sourcing doesn't establish that this firm is notable. Being the oldest Fintech company in New Zealand (if true) isn't a significant achievement, and the claimed turnover isn't particularly high for a financial sector business. Nick-D (talk) 10:56, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
Ohkay Sir(to everyone) give me some time if not then no problem deletion should be made for the articles...thank you for your time everyone — Preceding unsigned comment added by Afrojack255 (talk • contribs) 18:53, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Doesn't meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Some sympathy for the main author who should be allowed some time to attempt to add the sources they think exist. Doctorhawkes (talk) 08:20, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

- delete lacking in depth coverage. Most of the sources are not primarily about this company. LibStar (talk) 15:31, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:PROMO; strictly an advertorial page. The coverage that I see is PR or PR-like. This may be a case of WP:TOOSOON, with insufficient depth of coverage. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:12, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
