We had a talk with Financial IT about payments in FinTech, what we have learned from a global pandemic and how we see Tidypay in the future in the payment industry.
Tidypay’s Inge Rune Tetlie (Founder), Kjetil Idås (CCO), Frederik Schoop (Digital Marketing Manager and Karoline Alice Idås (Chief Partner & Marketing Manager) features in the interview.
Financial IT: Can you please tell us more about your background? What’s the story behind the founding Tidypay.
Inge Rune Tetlie: After working in the Retail and Payment Business for 30 years, I have been constantly searching for a solution that covers both payment and accounting capabilities. With the new emerging all-in-one payment terminals, we found an unexplored bridge between the two worlds. So by hosting cloud-based cash registers and payment software on the same POS terminal we felt we had a Columbus egg. So by joining forces with people that have long experience with accounting systems, and cash registers, and payment terminals we developed the product and the brand Tidypay.
Kjetil Idås: I have worked with digitization all my life in everything from software together with Inge Rune, with Microsoft when they came to Norway and a lot in digital education and digital school. So when Inge Rune came to me three years ago with this idea and software I understood this was something special.
Financial IT: What is unique about Tidypay and how does the company do to stand out among its competitors?
Karoline Alice Idås: We have certified our solution in most pan-European countries. So we have a one size fits all solution for all ISV’s that need to operate in more than one country. We also have joint forces with SUNMI which maybe is the fastest-growing POS supplier in Europe.
As an underdog to the well-established more slowly moving players in the payment industry, we have the possibility to be aggressive and flexible enough to take a considerable market share in Europe. We have absolutely one of the most appealing products in the market, especially targeting the untapped mobile payment industry like hospitality, locksmiths, and plumbers.
