Tagline: We are reinventing finance for gig economy workers, providing them with a safety net and the ability to build up their credit score through their work.

Elevator Pitch: Portify is the first UK fintech company to address the financial volatility many flexible workers face, offering essential financial products to help users build credit, budget and save, via a single secure mobile app.

There are 5-10 million such workers in the UK, and this segment is one of the fastest growing in the UK economy. We will not leave them underserved.

Target Market: Workers across the gig-economy spectrum. The self-employed, freelancers and those that take up some sort of side-hustle and freelance work to supplement their income.

How will you make money?: We charge a small monthly subscription fee for our customers to access interest free loans.

How much capital have you raised?: 5-10m
