We are a startup accelerator based in the heart of Berlin. We run 100 day acceleration programs. When we partner with you, we provide you with a place to work, access to our global network, daily opportunities and 25,000 Euro funding. In return we ask for 5% equity. Our support doesnt end after the 100 days. Our team, our alumni network and everyone we know are here to support you throughout your entrepreneurial journey. We do not just invest money. We know that the real value is in the people. The founders, the people in our team but most importantly the people we know. We connect our companies to mentors, clients and investors. We are a joint venture between the Plug and Play Tech Centre and Axel Springer. They support us in every way possible. It also means we are not bound to one region, one topic, one opinion. We offer a global network and international opportunities.

We dare to design the future of payments. Ratepay is energy and diversity and: custom-made state-of-the-art payment solutions. Established 2009 we were a fintech before the word fintech even existed. Today we are the number one white-label provider in Europe and proud to have filled the gap. We are where we are because we work together as one team. Because we got the freedom to execute ideas. And above everything: because we never stop improving. Here it is all about shared goals not about the big ego. We are dedicated pros (more than 250 of them) not cons. We embrace being courageous, committed and decisive, being warm-hearted and having a will to win. We have our origin in the heart of the payment scene and cover the whole value chain from integration support to the dunning process with a core of AI-based risk management. With us you can integrate direct debit, installments and prepayment. In other words: the favorite payment methods in Germany, Austria and Switzerland (the Dutch like it too). Located in the middle of Europe’s fintech megapolis Berlin we are happy to work with customers such as Eurowings, Ebay or About You and we’re constantly growing. You are interested in our ideas for your e-commerce business? You want to join our insanely dedicated team?
