Funding Circle Launches New Mobile Application for Flexipay and Card Customers Funding Circle launched its new mobile application (“app”). The latest app provides small businesses with a fast, intuitive, and centralised platform to manage their FlexiPay and Card products, from anywhere. The new app offers an optimised mobile experience to manage finances easily. FlexiPay customers can draw down funds, pay business bills, or settle up with HMRC instantly. By securely storing supplier details in one place, the app streamlines recurring supplier payments, removing the need to re-enter account information for invoices, while giving SMEs flexibility to spread payments over time to support their cash flow. Cashback card customers gain real-time visibility and streamlined card management, making it easier to track cashback, monitor upcoming Direct Debits, and control company cards directly from the app. The app uses minimal mobile data and loads account information instantly. To support seamless multitasking, FlexiPay customers’ payment progress is saved as the app remembers what the user was doing so they can pick up where they left off. The new Funding Circle mobile application is available on both the App Store and Google Play. Aankondiging • Jul 16
