Famigo (stylized FAMIGO) is a digital content marketplace for content creators. Based in Phoenix and Miami, the platform is accessible via website and application. Famigo is a portmanteau of "family" and "amigo".[1]

History

[edit]

In 2019, FAMIGO was co-founded by Maria Luna, Hector Rodriguez, and Tanmay Shahane primarily, as a web application marketed as a monetization platform for independent artists, musicians, creators, and influencers.[citation needed]

From 2019 to 2020, the company launched a beta web-based subscription marketplace that allowed the creators to engage fans with monthly subscriptions of exclusive digital content. After testing with a small group of content creators, it launched as FAMIGO on September 21, 2021 (during Latin Music Week) and is currently available in 55 countries.[2][3][4][5][6]
