Tax app gets six million euros

The Berlin-based company Accountable has completed its financing round. Stride.VC leads the round.

Berlin-based fintech Accountable closes its Series A financing round. The investors have given the start-up, which sells a tax app, a total of six million euros. The round was led by London-based Stride.VC, with existing investors Connect Ventures also participating.

According to Handelsblatt, the fintech has now raised around eight million euros thanks to the additional money and is now looking to grow further. The expansion into another market and the expansion of the team should contribute to this.

The aim of the app is to enable self-employed people to complete their tax returns on their own without getting lost in the jungle of paragraphs. The app is designed to guide users through their annual tax return in just a few clicks. The app thus offers a similar service to the Taxfix app, for example, which focuses primarily on employees.

"Now that we have cracked one of the most difficult tax markets, Germany, we are expanding from Berlin into other European countries," explains Tino Keller, Co-Founder & Managing Director of Accountable, to Handelsblatt.
