The story

FilmChain is a UK-based, women-led fintech redefining collection account management (CAM) for film, TV and video games — a traditionally opaque, manual back-office function in entertainment finance. The company combines smart contracts with 'trusted banking partners' to collect gross receipts, allocate recoupments to multi-party beneficiaries, and provide real-time reporting. Its product sits at the intersection of vertical SaaS and embedded financial operations rather than operating as a licensed fintech itself.
