ShareIn on a roll with the announcement of new client win
Edinburgh-based fintech and FinTech Scotland member ShareIn recently announced the win of a major global client, Shojin Property Partners, who have re-launched their property investment website using ShareIn’s modular approach to online investing.
Autumn 2019 saw the launch of ShareIn’s CASS-compliant payment solution, ShareInPay. Combining this with ShareIn’s direct investment technology solution and Innovative Finance (IF) ISA service allowed Shojin to consolidate their previous multiple software providers into a single, unifying supplier in ShareIn.
Shojin Property Partners’ Igor Gorbatsevich, Head of Digital, says: “Due to a combination of circumstances, notably rapid increases in the number of global investors, regulatory change and desire to further streamline our operations, it was the logical step to transition across to ShareIn. Their technology has provided us with a much more integrated infrastructure and enables us to deliver an enhanced investment experience, with more frequent feature updates to our online investment platform.”
ShareIn’s expanded offering comes along with the growth of its team, with plans to increase its headcount to 40 members in 2020.
Fintech ShareIn launch new Payments Product To Address Gap In The Market
Edinburgh based fintech firm launched a new specialist payment product called ShareInPay for platforms holding ISA money.
ShareIn operate investment platforms for clients such as Triodos Bank, the Dutch Ethical Bank, Crowdlords, Residential Property investments and Energise Africa.
ShareIn has been an Innovative Finance ISA Manager since Dec 2016 and many of their investment platforms offer Innovative Finance ISA products.
CTO and Co-Founder, Andrew Pickett says. “We needed a solution for our platforms to hold Client Money that wasn’t e-money. We searched everywhere and couldn’t find an API driven Client Money solution. So we decided we needed to build this ourselves.”
ShareIn obtained the regulatory permission to hold Client Money from the Financial Conduct Authority earlier this year.
CEO, Cook said “To say holding Client Money is difficult is a little bit of an understatement. There are few things in the Financial Regulatory environment more important than holding other people’s money.”
The launch of ShareInPay marks the start of a modular software approach for ShareIn to enable investment business more generally. Modules that work together or separately with an existing platform.
