Just in time for Giving Tuesday, crowdfunding site LendingCrowd has launched a new app for people to access the platform and invest on the go.
The app gives users the ability to access all their investments, inject funds, and also receive notifications when they are outbid or when bids are accepted on the loan market.
Diet food home delivery specialist Diet Chef has secured £1.5m in debt finance from Edinburgh-based crowdlending platform LendingCrowd.
The firm, which was launched by entrepreneurs Kevin Dorren and Andrew Veitch from a garage in 2008, is now the largest of its kind in the UK with 150,000 customers and a £15m turnover.
Dorren said it was ?important for the company to have the right funding package in place to drive future growth and to work with a like-minded entrepreneurial organisation?.
He added: ?LendingCrowd thinks like we do, so it was a real bonus for us to be able to partner with another expanding online business that shares our vision.?
