The oversubscribed funding round was led by Calyx Venture Fund with participation from Lord Stanley Fink and MPA Education.
"We founded Blackbullion to make financial wellbeing accessible to all young people, through great financial education and better, more inclusive access to funds. The current cost-of-living crisis makes this more urgent than ever, as we continue to create solutions truly focusing on students’ specific financial needs. We’re beyond excited to make this happen, with this new breed of operator-led investors, as we head into our next phase of growth."
The investment round was led by Nigel Wray alongside existing backer Lord Stanley Fink.
"With hundreds of billions of new beauty dollars up for grabs online over the next five years, brands are looking for a digital advantage. We provide that advantage and we are investing further to help our clients secure more attention and sales online."
The seed follow-on round was led by Lord Stanley Fink with backing from MPA Education, Emerge Education, and JISC.
"Money is the last great taboo and it’s our goal to ensure an engaging and effective financial education for young people,"
