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.
