First allygatr investment in Great Britain

Berlin-based HR tech specialist allygatr backs payroll specialist Givver

The founding team behind Givver: Cynthia Aliaga (CEO) and Elena Segura (COO) (f.l.t.r.)

A freelancer invoice here, a pay rise there, and of course all employees want to be paid on time: Payroll is one of those HR issues that takes up a lot of time every month. This is exactly where Givver comes in. The London-based start-up offers an innovative platform for automating payroll and HR processes for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - easily, legally compliant and in no time at all.

First steps in the payroll area

‘We took a stake in givver.io because they offer a clear answer to the common HR and payroll challenges faced by organisations. With their all-in-one platform that seamlessly integrates all processes, there is no need to juggle multiple systems or endless Excel spreadsheets. With an impressive CAGR in the UK payroll market, it's clear that the demand for efficient, scalable solutions will continue to grow,’ says allygatr founder and CEO Benjamin Visser. ‘Givver not only provides an answer to today's requirements, but is also perfectly positioned to capitalise on the next wave of growth.’

The founding team behind Givver consists of Cynthia Aliaga (CEO) and Elena Segura (COO): Both bring years of experience in HR and payroll. Aliaga has already worked at the fintech scale-ups Revolut and Tymit, while Segura gained experience as a product manager at HR tech unicorn Personio, among others. 

The #hrtechallyance convinces the British founders

‘Our goal is to innovate core processes in HR and payroll accounting. That's why we need to work with partners who understand the industry,’ says CEO Cynthia Aliaga. ‘allygatr brings both the knowledge and the unique network we need to ensure that Givver not only meets but exceeds market expectations.’
