We're a Tech Startup on a mission to flip payments from painful to powerful. Our all-in-one suite of payment tools is solving problems that have gone unresolved for small businesses, who spend hundreds of hours dealing with painful admin tasks.
Apron is a London-based B2B payments platform, designed to address the intricate and time-consuming process of supplier payments.
Aimed at small businesses, Apron streamlines invoice management, facilitating patch payments, optimising approval workflows, and automating reconciliations. It allows businesses to redirect their focus from administrative tasks to core operations.
In 2024, a successful Series B funding round poised Apron to expand its engineering and product teams and launch new products that draw in larger customers. With this funding, Apron is well prepared to achieve the goals of expansion laid out in its 2025 roadmap.

Apron don't shy away from the fact that it's a startup with ambitious goals. But I've found the company does well in striking the difficult balance of moving quickly and working hard, while still taking the time to celebrate the wins along the way. People have legitimate ownership over their work and I find that autonomy very motivating.
