Fathom’s user experience project for Flender’s app won the International Growth category. Flender enables businesses and consumers to lend and borrow money through an app that links in with social network connections.
Fathom took Flender from a partially built technology platform to a complete product with a beautiful user experience and user journey from end to end. The results have been outstanding. Following the launch of the improved user experience, Flender.ie sales went from zero in March 2017 to over €4.6m as of November 2018, with over 270 jobs created.
In the seven years since Fathom was founded, the business has grown to 10 people and boasts among its clients some of the best-known brands in Ireland (AIB, Firmus, Bord Bia, Kingspan, Permanent TSB, Three, Tesco Mobile, PSNI) as well as the most exciting apps and start-ups growing today (Flender, Rubicoin, Plotbox, Digital Printing). Their UK footprint is also growing, with significant contracts with the Met Office and NHS Scotland.
