Incubator

Our mission? To help you launch and kickstart your startup.

Ready to launch and grow your start-up? Join our fintech incubator and get a flying start!

The Finance Innovation incubator is the place to be if you want to innovate new solutions related to banking, finance and insurance. We define “fintech” in the broadest sense, so your idea or product doesn’t have to be developed with fintech in mind, so long as it has an application within the field.

The startups

Tjommi

Tjommi monitors the internet and finds price changes. When you buy a product with a «price guarantee», the store has promised that they will be the cheapest or give you the return. If the price of the product you bought goes down in the next 50 days, you have the right to claim the difference. To get your money, take a picture of the receipt in the Tjommi app. Tjommi trains the internet and finds price changes. If Tjommi finds changes, they’ll send you a prefilled form so you can easily claim the difference from the retailers through the app.

Horde

Horde offers a platform where you can see all of your credit cards and consumer loans in one place. It allows you to see the balance of your loans, how big your credit limit is, what you owe and to which interest rate. The app also lets you cancel the cards you don’t want, so you can get better terms when applying for loans. The team is working on another “secret” project to further improve your private economy.

goscore+

goscore+ wants to help consumers pay down their debts faster, understand how their credit score affects their personal life and what they can do to improve it. We want to ensure that you get the loan offers that you deserve. We do this by creating a new and better way to assess your credit score in a way that is fair, accurate and updated in real-time. Our aim is to create a single score to improve and unify the credit application process. This benefit both society by improving financial stability and lenders by reducing risk need to be taken.
