SteadyPay Secures £4 Million Series A Funding to Support Gig Economy Workers
SteadyPay, a London-based startup providing a payment platform for gig economy workers and freelancers, has raised £4 million in a Series A funding round led by Digital Horizon
Other investors include Ascension Ventures, the UK government's Future Fund, and angel investors
The funding will be used to expand SteadyPay's product offerings and address the financial needs of gig workers
SteadyPay's technology uses open banking to integrate with a gig worker's bank account and calculates their average monthly income
If their income falls below that figure, SteadyPay offers to top it up, with users repaying through interest-free payments
The company charges a £4 weekly subscription and administration fees.
