Co-founder Fabian Mohr said, “This funding shows that we are making real progress in delivering innovation and value in the capital market for individuals and businesses. With UnitPlus Business, SMEs can earn better returns on their cash, compared to the low interest from traditional banks, which is essential during these challenging times.”
It focuses on SMEs, which often struggle with cash management. Many traditional banking solutions don’t meet their specific needs, especially for those with cash reserves between €100,000 and €5 million.
It provides advanced treasury management tools, previously available only to large companies, helping SMEs optimize their working capital, manage currency risks, and find better investment opportunities while keeping enough liquidity.
Monik Pham from Pact noted, “UnitPlus has grown impressively with limited resources. SMEs are vital to the European economy, yet their treasury needs are often overlooked. UnitPlus Business is ready to bridge that gap and become a digital CFO for mid-sized companies looking for smart cash management.”
