About us

Voilo is the trusted digital friend for independent businesses and charities, granting unrivalled access to affordable support, leading-edge technology and insights. A real-time payment and auto reward platform for micro-SMEs & charities which saves upto 90% transactional cost, and is 95% faster in getting the funds into the bank account. Helping charities to avail £1.3 billion of gift-aid donations & enabling 40% of micro-SMEs who donot accept any kind of digital payments. 40% of the UK’s Micro-SMEs don’t accept any kind of digital payment and £600m worth of Giftaid is unclaimed by charities each year in the UK. Many businesses are being tied down to long-term contracts & expensive payment solutions. In the current payment system, businesses have to wait 3-7 days to get money into their business account. Waiting for payments costs the UK economy £2.5 billion each year and kills 50,000 small businesses and 1000 charities. Voilo has developed the most portable and affordable payment system designed for sole traders, local businesses and charities to thrive. With just a simple scan of a QR code, customers/donors can pay securely straight from their phone and where traditional systems take 3-5 days to get payments into account, with Voilo it takes 3-5 seconds. — RECOGNISED BY — 🏆 Technology Provider of the Year 2023 by The British Business Award 2023 🏆 Fintech startup of the year 2022 by National Start-up Series 🏆 Digital Start-up of the Year finalist by West Midlands Tech Award 🏆 New business of the year 2022 by Birmingham Live 🏆 Company of the Year by 2022 by Midland's Service award

The latest on VRP’s from the regulator. VRP’s (variable recurring payments) could support certain businesses / sectors who need to transfer funds quickly and securely and are powered by Open Banking. They allow customers to see which institutions they have agreed to make recurring payments to and the limits of each payment that is given with permission. The plan is to include flexibility (per day, per month or per year) Quick to set up the payment can be changed dynamically right up to the point of irrevocable payment (so your customers can respond to changes in real time). What do you think would you offer VRP’s to your customer? Could they be useful? Ravi Ranjan Andy Coleyshaw #openbanking #payments #variablerecurringpayments
