Our take
Flex, formerly known as Flexbase, supplies credit and finance management tools for small and midsize business (SMBs). At the core of its offering is a credit card, with a complimentary platform that collects all finance operations into one easy-to-manage app.
Perhaps the most intriguing part of Flex's approach is the credit card itself, which comes with 0% interest for 60 days. Through this, businesses can improve their cash flow and be more free to invest in growth. Besides this, users can also issue virtual employee cards at no extra cost, and use functions such as receipt capture and free ach/wire payments.
Having steadily grown its offering over the years, Flex has now raised a significant funding round to expand its business and accelerate growth. Demand for its solutions has already moved the company to expand beyond its initial focus on the construction industry to target clients across logistics, eCommerce, real estate and other sectors. After raising $120 million in September 2023, Flex has proceeded to launch its own app - the finance super app - to streamline the finance back office for business owners.
