Prospective investors, including new and existing customers, will now have a final opportunity to share in Curve’s future success following the rapid growth it has seen recently. Full details of the crowdfund can be found live on Crowdcube’s website [http://www.crowdcube.com/curve ].

Key highlights from Curve’s crowdfund:

● Over £3.1m raised in 30 minutes

● £7.2m raised in 24 hours

● Nearly 9,000 investors to date

The proceeds of the crowdfunding round and its successful Series C round will be used to fuel the company’s international expansion and product innovation.

Curve will provide a full overview of its crowdfunding round when it closes on Thursday 27 May at 1500 BST.

Curve provides a host of benefits to its customers:

● Combines a customer’s Mastercard and Visa debit and credit cards in one card.

● Enables customers’ cards to fit into Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, FitBit Pay and many more, even if their banks do not support this integration.

● Curve provides 1% cash back on selected retailers for the first 30 days, or for an unlimited time on Curve’s paid subscriptions.

● With Curve’s patented Go-Back-In-Time® feature, Curve customers may be able to swap their spend to a different account, up to 90 days after the purchase was made.

● Increased security and privacy - Curve simplifies customers’ lives by providing them with only one pin to remember; keeping other sensitive card numbers safe by using Curve when spending online; providing real time spending notifications and the ability to lock the Curve card directly from the app.

● Peace of mind - Curve’s premium Metal offering provides mobile phone insurance and travel insurance to ensure customers can focus on living their lives, rather than worrying about losing their phone or bags when they travel.
