Californian fintech Crowdz is partnering with GoCardless, an online payment processing solution, to integrate open banking into its SME invoice financing platform.
The platform says it is looking to enhance its ability to drive equitable access to finance for small businesses with the new collaboration.
Crowdz secured $10m in an investment round led by Citi and Global Cleantech Capital in May this year and is now looking to incorporate three payment features powered by GoCardless’ open banking technology.
