“Embedding financial services directly into our product unclogs the flow of working capital across supply chains, eliminating a significant pressure point in the buyer-suppliers relationship.
As one of the first companies to recognise the potential for embedded finance in SaaS, we have been betting on the convergence of Fintech and SaaS products for a while. We’ve built the technology and distribution channels to capitalise on what is now one of the defining trends in our industry,”
said Christian Lanng, CEO and Co-founder of Tradeshift.
