🎉 €1.7 MILLION RAISED 🎉 What began as a simple idea to replace paper loyalty cards has evolved into something far greater. SQUID was born from a deep belief that local businesses deserve better tools to connect with their customers, share their stories, and build lasting relationships. We're incredibly proud to announce that SQUID has raised €1.7 million through our crowdfunding campaign, with our target reached within just 6 HOURS of public launch. Over 2,600 investors, including more than 2,000 Irish backers, have joined our journey as shareholders. This isn't just funding – it's validation of everything we've built together. We've built the largest local loyalty network in the UK and Ireland, with over 570,000 users who believe in our vision. We've been inspired by companies like Revolut, BrewDog and Monzo Bank – brands that didn't just build companies but communities that believed in their vision. With this €1.7 million raised on Crowdcube, we're accelerating the rollout of Wave – our universal loyalty currency that will transform how businesses attract, engage, and retain customers across the SQUID Network. Instead of businesses paying for ads that don't work, they can invest directly into their own customers, changing how marketing in retail works forever. From everyone at SQUID, thank you for believing in our mission. This is just the beginning! #SQUIDLoyalty #Crowdfunding #StartupSuccess #LocalBusiness #DigitalLoyalty #CommunitySupport #IrishTech

Just invested in SQUID on Crowdcube! Squid has allowed us to keep in touch with customers directly and keep coming back since our early days. The biggest sell for me is what it communicates to the customer: that you’re a certain kind of coffee shop. It sets you apart from your local greasy spoon; you’re trendy, you’re techy, you’re likely to have active social media and up-to-date equipment. People aren’t just loyal to us - they’re loyal to Squid! Can’t wait to see how they grow over the next few years! 🤞🏼

Honored to be featured in The Sunday Times this weekend! Six years of early mornings, late nights, and countless coffees with small business owners has led to this moment. What started as a simple idea in Dublin has grown into a community of people who believe in real connections between local businesses and their customers. We're so grateful to every partner, user, and team member who's been part of this journey. You're the reason we wake up excited every day. And today at 3PM, we're taking another big step forward as our crowdfunding campaign opens to the public. We've always believed that loyalty should be a two-way street—now we're inviting our community to become owners alongside us. Thank you to The Sunday Times for sharing our story, and to all of you who make SQUID what it is. Join us at 3pm today! - https://lnkd.in/dVNSXBvA #StartupJourney #LocalBusiness #Loyalty #Crowdfunding
