LONDON – Thursday 9th July, 2020: Divido, the leading, global whitelabel platform for retail finance, has been selected by INV Fintech, in collaboration with Fiserv, to take part in their lauded cultivation programme to help supercharge regional financial institutions with new tools and services to defend and grow their lending volumes in retail finance.

The nod from the well-regarded ‘voice of business technology’ calls out Divido’s business growth and the flexibility offered by the platform to deliver a variety of payment options to customers, through retail finance, connecting the trinity of lenders, merchants and consumers, on and offline.

The recognition comes amid a cluster of accolades and commendations from the technology community for the payments firm, including appearing on Seedtable’s 111 London Startups to Watch in 2020 list and an invitation to join INV Fintech’s cultivation programme, in the past month.

For Divido to be ranked among its peers by such a well-respected publication as Computerworld is really exciting for us as a brand and leader in the payments arena.
