Collctiv is an app that helps group organisers collect money for activities and large gifts through simplifying the money collection and payment process, by enabling them to send just one link and receive payments in less than 5 seconds – regardless of the banking or payments platform their group uses!

Having spent less than £100k on paid acquisition, we have helped over 1.9 million people in 175 countries, process over £100m of payments – for everything social from sports to travel, events to gifts, charity to activities.

We know it can be super awkward (and frustrating!) chasing people down for money, so our app enables people to request money from friends by sending them a custom payment link or QR code. Friends can then use Apple Pay, Google Pay or their digital wallet to pay (no bank details, account creation, or app download required).

We’ve removed the friction from collecting and spending group money through our unique group payments technology. By doing so, we ensure that people are able to come together with the people they love, without one individual in the group carrying the burden of being out of pocket for making this happen.
