Salary benchmarks
Our take
Acquired.com makes it easier for businesses to set up, integrate and optimise payment and banking processes on their own tech stacks. The company is a part of Quint Group, which operates a number of fast-growth fintech businesses globally, including Monevo and MoneyGuru.
Launched in 2016, Acquired.com has been growing quickly, winning high-profile customers and partners including Rangers Football Club, Barclaycard, and the Bitcoin Store. Though its core product offering seems quite similar to that of many fintech service providers, Acquired attributes its success to a human-centric, consultative approach – an increasingly rare thing in the tech space.
Perhaps one of the most impressive things about Acquired.com, or Quint Group as a whole, is how it continues to scale and expand into a number of markets across the world without any major capital investment.
