In a competitive market, it’s imperative to choose partners who complement your company’s value offer at every step and encourage you to strive toward larger goals. Whether you’re an online merchant, industry, traditional service provider or restaurateur, LHV provides everything you need for your business to grow as ambitiously as you imagined it.
OK, but how?
Here are a few practical examples how LHV’s comprehensive services for business clients can help your business go from one stage to the next.
Let’s say you’re developing your new business idea. One of the best ways to validate it is to run it by friends, family and other contacts to see if they might be interested in buying the product or service you’re developing even before it’s ready. The confidence you need to take a business idea forward doesn’t come from people saying they’re interested, but actual deposits and prepayments from your future customers. That is how you amass the funds you need to move ahead with the business.
LHV offers the LinkPay payment gateway service, which doesn’t even require your company to be registered yet – you can use it with your entrepreneur account or your ordinary personal bank account. LinkPay helps you process your first payments through card payments, mobile payment services and bank links.
You’ve launched your business and the first revenue is coming in…
Starting a business is an exciting and challenging time for the budding entrepreneur. At LHV, we’re rooting for you and want to help you in the next phases of growth.
When you’ve sent out your first invoices and your company is generating revenue, it’s the right time to take a look at whether you can accelerate growth through additional financing. LHV offers a very flexible micro loan for brand-new and small businesses. It’s ideal for boosting cash flow, purchases of new equipment and investments for hiring more staff.
Being visible on the internet is extremely important for today’s businesses. LHV’s partner Veebimajutus offers free server hosting for the first six months for a trouble-free start. When you set up a new website, you can use the hosting service’s interface to immediately add the LHV payment gateway module to your website. Learn about all LHV business client offers.
With LHV's comprehensive payment collection solution, you can quickly get your online store off the ground. We support all of the most popular methods of payment that consumers use – bank links, card payments, Google Pay and Apple Pay, deferred payment etc. Additionally, we offer LHV instalment payment service as a clever ‘buy now, pay later' product. Customers can use instalment payment to pay in three equal instalments, interest-free, while you, the merchant, receive the sum of the purchase immediately.
Your business is growing, and it’s whetted your appetite for more…
Many businesses require more than just online storefronts. Sometimes you need to visit customers at their locations or invite the customer to you.
We offer merchants various payment terminal solutions, plus integration with popular POS systems and enterprise software (such as ERPLY, CompuCash etc.).
If your business is completely mobile and you regularly go to physical locations to sell your products and services, a point of sale smart terminal is what you need. We offer a two-in-one terminal with no need for a separate cash register since the Ektaco’s CompuCash POS application can be added on to the terminal.
Your business starts taking on an international dimension…
At LHV, we’re there for your business when you plan to raise capital from investors through bond issues or IPOs. We also offer financial advisory services for companies contemplating acquisitions and sale or other major strategic decisions, as well as a number of solutions that pave the way to becoming a future listed company or facilitate administering other strategic and capital structure processes.
Besides managing investor relations, we know how important it is for a fast-growing company to be an attractive employer and draw the finest talent while keeping existing staff motivated.
We help compile and manage a package of options that helps employees get an overview of holdings they will acquire in future and their possible worth. Read more about this on our website.
