After helping more than 650,000 members in the UK since 2017, we are rapidly growing in India with 350,000 members already using our app. Whilst more than 1 in 10 small businesses in the UK now use the Tide app, our recent launch in Germany is our first step towards serving small businesses in Europe. Today’s milestone underscores our mission to help SMEs thrive, by saving them time and money in their finance and admin. Our CEO, Dr. Oliver Prill, said: “To have one million members globally now using the Tide app to run their small business is a tremendous milestone. It’s a testament to the extraordinary hard work and ambition of our teams. The growth of our member base, since launching in the UK in 2017, shows how far we have come as a company in product, skill and geographic depth and scale. We will continue to focus on an experience that caters to the needs of time-poor and admin-heavy small business owners, and deliver a diversified product as we grow globally.” To all our members, colleagues and investors, thank you for your unwavering support and trust. We look forward to continuing to work together to become the leading global platform for SMEs.
