• 450,000+ users, 121% YOY growth (May 19-20)

Idea

Moneybox is an award-winning saving and investing app. Since our 2016 launch, we’ve seen positive growth:

• 450k users - 121% YOY growth (May19-20)
• £50m raised from top VC firms and investors including our Series C
• Series C funding more than doubled the previous raise

We see this as the right time to invest in Moneybox. We’ve hit £1 billion AUA, we're completing our £30m Series C funding and together our users deposit an average £100m on the platform each month.

Our success started from our mission - to help everyone save and invest for their future.

The Moneybox app provides the right products, tools and tech. We launched offering round ups, investing the spare change from daily card purchases into a Stocks & Shares ISA. Since then, our tech and product offerings have grown. Users can now set aside money in a way that suits them, into a range of different products, including; cash accounts, Lifetime ISAs and a personal pension.

Along with our latest Series C funding, our first crowd raise will help us build our product offering, invest in new technology, scale the team and further execute on our mission.

We’ve secured the required investment from our latest funding, but wanted to bring the Moneybox community closer to our journey, giving everyone the opportunity to share and shape our future success of aiming to become one of the largest saving and investing platforms in the UK.
