Our take

Many people dream of starting a business, but the stresses of banking and accounting prevent them from ever doing so. Hiring accountants is expensive and traditional bookkeeping platforms are failing to meet the demands of today's fintech landscape, showing the demand for an updated take on business banking software.

Shine provides an online banking management platform, offering banking and accounting services for SMEs, freelancers, startups, and agencies. The company's financial experts handle the accounting to free up time, in addition to offering consulting services for business growth and creation.

The rise of open banking has resulted in the fintech industry becoming oversaturated with startups, but Shine shows great potential to stand out due to its comprehensive accountancy services for any business size. Through this approach, the company aims to make online banking services more flexible and accessible whilst providing its customers with insightful and up-to-date financial advice.
