Starling Bank welcomes SumUp card payments and Dinghy business insurance to the marketplace
Starling Bank has added SumUp payment solutions (here) and Dinghy the insurance provider (here) to the Marketplace bringing business customers in-app integrations to save them time and money.
Anne Boden, CEO and founder of Starling said: “Both these new service providers have been chosen to reduce the number of hours SMEs have to spend on admin in order to free them up to spend more time running their business.”
SumUp: Payments simplified
Once activated, Starling business customers using SumUp for payments will be able to see a summary receipt for all their incoming SumUp payouts in their Starling app. For example, if you process £2,100 through SumUp in one week, you’ll be able to see details of what this £2,100 is made up of when this income is transferred to Starling.
The SumUp breakdown in the Starling app includes:
- Total value of payout
- Number of transactions in payout
- Total fees and taxes in payout
- Total tips in payout
- Summary by day if payout covers multiple days
- Like all our integrations, our connection with SumUp is enabled by open APIs. The granular detail of the payout breakdown is designed to give customers improved visibility over sales and revenue
Dinghy: Insurance for freelancers
Dinghy has designed insurance with freelancers in mind. It offers professional indemnity, public liability and business equipment insurance policies to both sole traders and limited companies. All policies are flexible – you can dial it up or down, according to how and when you’re working. And prices start at 30p per day, depending on which type of insurance you go for.
Starling customers with a sole trader or limited company business account can sign up to and manage Dinghy through the Starling Marketplace, the space in the app where you can connect to third-party services. We’ll never charge you more than if you went directly to Dinghy and, with your permission, we’ll fill in certain details to make quotes even quicker.
