A Scottish fintech which specialises in crowdfunding software has secured a major new client.
Edinburgh-based ShareIn, which started life with a single shared desk four years ago and is now targeting an expansion in its workforce to 40 this year, has started working with Shojin Property Partners. The London-headquartered property investment platform has replaced a number of software providers with a single supplier in ShareIn.
Shojin provides access to investment opportunities in the UK real estate sector for investors from across the globe. It is using ShareIn’s direct investment technology, ShareInPay which was launched last Autumn and aimed at platforms holding ISA money.
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.”
In November, ShareIn’s chief executive and co-founder Jude Cook won the CEO of the Year award at the second annual Scottish Tech Start-up Awards hosted by Edinburgh’s Turing Fest.
The company, which is based at tech firm incubator CodeBase, is looking to increase its workforce from 28 to 40 this year to meet growing demand.
