Moneyflow, a Copenhagen-based embedded fintech startup, has raised €250M in debt financing from Belgian Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) provider Aion Bank. The Danish tech will use the fund to accelerate the roll-out of its embedded finance services across platform partners in the Nordics and the rest of Europe.
Founded in 2018 by Danish entrepreneur Kim Ulf Rehfeld Thodén, Moneyflow provides SMEs with invoice funding and revenue funding within their existing workflow platform, allowing brands to grow. To accomplish this, the company claims to have created the market’s “most” advanced underwriting engine, complete with advanced risk and payment predictions.
Expansion Plans
The Danish fintech startup and Aion Bank announced their plan to expand their collaboration into new markets. Aion and its technology partner Vodeno will provide Moneyflow with various banking services in the countries it’s currently operating in Europe. These include providing access to local IBANs and payment schemes.
Small to medium-sized businesses can sell their invoice and revenue streams directly to ERP platforms such as Visma e-conomic, Dinero and Ordrestyring. By selling their invoices, SMEs can release cash without any risk of late payments.
Moneyflow is regulated by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority.
