What we stand for

 

Certified B Corp | Certified B Corp |

People, planet, and positive change

We’ve been a certified B Corp since 2018, validating our commitment to high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. We don’t just say, we do. And the proof is in the B Corp pudding! 

A purpose driven Fintech, would you have ever thought to put the two together?

As one of the first Tech B Corps in the UK, we’re honoured to have been awarded this certification. We can proudly say we have always been passionate and never lost sight of the bigger picture, even before B Corps were a 'thing’.  We always knew it came from people, from the community and from having a bigger purpose than just profit. We wanted to break the norm. We wanted to make an impact. Achieving this status allowed us to amplify and add our voice to this crucial movement from an industry that stereotypically doesn't share the same vision.

Our unwavering commitment to prioritise our people, clients, community and planet lies at the very core of our actions.

The B Corp movement has gained momentum over the past few years as businesses have embraced the importance of considering the needs of all stakeholders, not just shareholders. It's worth noting that not everyone who applies receives accreditation. Only those who genuinely uphold values and possess the determination to constantly improve themselves and make a positive impact are awarded with a B Corp status.

People

Employee first. People first. We’ve listened, learned and worked hard to put in place an infrastructure and culture of wellbeing that genuinely supports FundAppers as humans and enables them to do their best work.

Community

At the core of our business lies a deep appreciation for the wider community. We seize every chance to make a difference, be it by granting unlimited volunteering leave, implementing a matched donation scheme, or extending our unwavering support to local suppliers.

Planet

You may have heard the saying, "With great power comes great responsibility." Well, with a B Corp certification, comes environmental responsibility. We are firmly dedicated to reducing our environmental footprint as much as possible. We actively recycle, utilise technology and remote working to minimise travel, and only purchase items that are environmentally friendly.

Working together to build a bike with multiple moving parts. Rec-cycling is a huge part of FundApps B Corp journey.

All companies have a profit motive. What sets FundApps and other B Corps apart, is that the desire to have a positive impact on our people and clients and well as our communities and planet is enshrined in our constitutional documents as well as they way we do business

Chief Financial Officer

Presenting the facts: FundApps was one of the first tech B Corps in the UK! Back of the head shots as FundAppers watch a presentation.

In the not too distant future, I hope that being a B Corp will be the norm - committing to having a positive impact for all stakeholders – our people, clients, our communities and planet. FundApps began this journey in 2018 and I love that so many other businesses are joining this movement.

With March being #BCorpMonth, Eliza, Sales Associate, explains what this means in practice.

What is a B Corp?

The B Corporation community is a global movement of individuals harnessing the power of business to create positive change, harmonising both purpose and profit. Certified B Corps are companies that have undergone rigorous evaluation and certification to uphold high standards of social, environmental, human, customer, and ethical performance.

For FundApps, being a B Corp is a commitment to accountability. We view B Corp certification as more than just a periodic evaluation; it is a guiding framework for how we operate and conduct our business on a daily basis.
