About Highbeam

Highbeam is a banking and cash management platform for businesses that sell physical goods.

Traditional banks have underserved consumer brands for decades. They charge fees, provide clunky backend software, bureaucratic service, zero interest on cash, no credit, and offer no intelligence on transaction data. Highbeam does the opposite. We automatically sweep idle cash to high yield, provide cash projections, bill pay functions, a user-friendly interface, smart credit, great service, and more. The results are significant savings for our customers in both time and money. We’re turning banking from a cost centre into a profit centre, and helping small businesses make a better living.

We already have hundreds of customers that collectively produce over $1B in GMV (gross merchant volume). We’re on a mission to give brands between $5M and $200M in sales the financial capabilities of the largest brands — but without needing the extra head count. How do we do this? We help automate tasks that treasury and financial planning & analysis teams today do manually.

Our small but mighty team comes from places like Shopify, Square, Rippling and Toast. We have raised $7M+ in equity from FirstMark and Mayfield. We are are based in New York and Toronto.
