Investment from 83North will be used to continue rapid global expansion
Walldorf, Germany, November 9, 2017: TIS (Treasury Intelligence Solutions GmbH), the leading cloud platform for managing corporate payments and cash flows, today announced it has raised $12 million in additional financing from international VC firm 83North. 83North joins previous investors Target Partners and Zobito.
The company plans to use the new funding to further accelerate product development and scale operations in Europe and the US, in order to meet growing international demand. Many globally recognized organizations, including Office Depot, Staples Solutions, Archroma, Dachser, Fresenius, Fujitsu, Oettinger Davidoff and Swissgrid, already use TIS to standardize and analyze payment flows throughout their organizations.
“We are proud to have 83North on board alongside our existing investors. 83North’s investment and its unrivalled fintech expertise will help accelerate our growth,” said Jörg Wiemer, CEO and co-founder at TIS. “Thanks to the growing number of corporates, banks and service providers already using our cloud platform, TIS will continue to enjoy increasing network effects and thus strengthened market leadership.”
"We believe the team, the technology and the traction we see at TIS provide a great opportunity to create and lead a new global category,” said Laurel Bowden, Partner at 83North. “TIS is attacking a huge market with an unmet need. We are excited to be working with Jörg and co-founder Erol.”
“We have been investors in TIS almost since inception and are impressed with its development. TIS has established itself as the leading SaaS platform for corporate payments – creating efficiency in a highly inefficient market,” added Berthold von Freyberg, Partner at Target Partners.
GP Bullhound, an international technology investment banking firm, acted as sole advisor to TIS during the round of financing.
