Our take

Founded in 2015, Clearbank was the UK's first new clearing bank in 250 years. The company aims to make payments faster and cheaper and, by doing so, disrupt a market that currently lacks competition.

The company differentiate itself through its cloud-native technology that facilitates transactions between financial institutions, fintech and other financial service providers. Moreover, the bank empowers its partners to offer real-time payment and innovative banking services to their clients.

Serving a wide range of financial institutions, including Tide and Coinbase, the company has focused its funding toward its consistent expansion, offering its single API cloud-native platform to financial institutions around the world, from Europe to North America and Asia Pacific. The company counts Dozens, OakNorth, and Tide among its partners.
