Company mission

To help small businesses to do everything finance admin-related, from everyday spending to managing invoices, freeing up clients to focus on growth.

-1% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

ANNA stands for Absolutely No-Nonsense Admin. It was founded to simplify running a business for entrepreneurs, providing small businesses and startups with a swift and simple business current account, as well as managing their invoicing and coming with a debit Mastercard.

ANNA's app and account are all free for 3 months, with no fees for transactions or cash withdrawals. It offers invoice management, late payment chasing, instant account statements, 24/7 customer service, and the ability to freeze the Mastercard in the app, all on top of a rapid-issue debit Mastercard and business current account. These services are backed by a team of experts in leadership, customer service, finance, AI, business building, and administration.

With these features, users can track their money on mobile, say goodbye to paper receipts, and have their company taxes and VAT sorted automatically. Saving time on the admin makes for more fun and allows users to focus on what's most important to them.
