Funding Announcements

"Knowledge sharing can become dependent on individual tech leads who develop a comprehensive understanding of how a technology is built, and often take it with them when they move on to new roles, leaving the next crop of engineers without essential context,"

"The investment will help us achieve long-term growth and shake up the industry with technology that addresses key ecommerce challenges within hotels. We have worked alongside luxury hotels for over a decade and pride ourselves in truly understanding their business. Our latest platform, onejourney® – the world’s first unified ecommerce platform for hotels – addresses a key pain point for hoteliers and maximises property profitability."

"The fundamental problem we’re solving is context: Plain offers a single source of truth for customer interactions, powered by companies’ own systems and data – so when someone gets in touch with a problem, the company immediately knows who they are, what their order is, what’s happened so far – and can resolve it in a single click. Customer service teams are often left unsupported by their colleagues in engineering because traditional systems can be hard to integrate and build with. As a result, customer support teams are left to contend with poorly integrated tools, fragmented data, and disconnected systems. We’re designing Plain from day 1 with both engineering and customer service teams in mind, so it can be quickly and easily customised, rather painfully ‘hacked’ after the fact."

"As the UK high street bank with the best ESG score from independent analysis, The Co-operative Bank is a perfect investor for Zellar. We hold so many shared values. We both believe passionately in cutting though the greenwash and driving meaningful environmental change, and helping local businesses and their wider communities to take action. The overwhelming interest shown by The Co-operative Bank’s customers following our launch programme in June this year, is a real confirmation of the synergies between our two companies. This investment will help us to deliver an even better, more meaningful experience to our shared customers and beyond."
