October 18 (SeeNews) - Bulgarian-founded payment management platform Payhawk said on Tuesday that it has launched a solution partner programme to provide its customers with a network of professional services.
The programme was introduced in response to growing demand from Payhawk’s enterprise-size customers to maximise automation between the company’s spend management solution and other business tools, the startup said in a press release.
Through the programme, Payhawk’s customers will gain access to professional partners specialising in integration and customisation services for enterprise resource planning (ERP) and human capital management (HCM) systems as well as accounting systems and other business tools.
The launch follows a successful trial of the services earlier this year, Payhawk said.
As part of the programme, Payhawk also announced one of its first strategic partnerships with Next Consult, a boutique consultancy with offices in the U.S., the UK, Switzerland, Romania and Bulgaria.
The launch of the programme comes after Payhawk released new credit card products in the U.S. and UK at the end of September and recently recorded year-to-date revenue growth of 520%.
In March, the fintech became Bulgaria's first unicorn when it reached a valuation of 1 billion dollars (1 billion euro) after closing an extended funding round led by US investment firm Lightspeed Venture Partners.
