About Amy & Collctiv
Collctiv Founders Pete & Amy were working together as CTO and COO in a fast-growth tech scaleup when a teammate announced her maternity leave. 10 colleagues all committed to contribute 拢10, and Amy bought a mum-to-be spa voucher with a 拢100 budget in mind.
A few weeks later and after much chasing Amy realised she had only received 拢20 back..and 拢10 was her own! This was the straw-that-broke-the-camels-back moment that set Pete & Amy on course to understanding the problem and opportunity of group payments. Collctiv was born.
Collctiv makes it easy for Organisers to collect and spend group money. By understanding how a group of friends/colleagues functions – and by putting the Organiser at the centre of everything they do and build – they make it much more likely that the Organiser will collect all the required money for a group purchase or booking. The Contributors of the group are not motivated to do any banking, download another app, create an account or even go to a cash machine. That is why all they have to do is simply tap/scan to pay in less than 5 seconds – no account set up, no banking, no fuss.
Since launching in September 2019, Collctiv has raised 拢750K over pre-seed and seed rounds, processed over 拢7.5M of group payments, in 42 currencies from 55 different countries, turning over 拢220K in revenue. It has 210K users who have made 250K
payments, and sent 123K messages.
Collctiv serves Organisers who make plans, collect money and make purchases/bookings in over 1,100 cities around the world. Collctiv is used in 10K companies, 58 UK government agencies, 136 UK councils, 62 NHS trusts, 118 schools and 156 universities*. All of this has been achieved by spending less than 拢6,000 on paid advertising/social ads in total and instead in achieving growth through organic SEO and viral network effects of the product.
Their plan is to:
- Build a sustainable platform for growth
- Prepare for and launch Collctiv鈥檚 service in the US to meet consumer demand
- Build out the development team to improve user experience, improve the platform management and expand the network.
- We also need to hire talent in compliance, finance, HR, operations, data analytics, marketing and sales
- With the customer 鈥減ull鈥� demand from the US, targeting that market is a natural extension for Collctiv
