Alternative e-money provider Suits Me celebrates winning multiple business awards

UK-based e-money account provider/ Suits Me is celebrating double success after being announced as the winner of two categories at the recent Best Business Awards 2021.

The company was named overall winner in the Best Customer Focus category, with its CEO and founder Matthew Sanders also named winner in the Outstanding Entrepreneur category. 

Founded in 2015 by Matthew, Suits Me aims to be the number one e-money current account provider for those seeking a hassle-free alternative to traditional high street banking. The company is based in Cheshire. 

Matthew said: “I wanted to set up an alternative financial solution to give people a modern choice while having access to all of the features more traditional bank accounts have to offer, such as a contactless debit card, a mobile app, setting up direct debits and managing savings effectively. Suits Me meets that need – high street banking doesn’t suit everyone.” 

Suits Me is not a bank, it’s an alternative solution e-money account issuer operating as an agent under the licence of PrePay Solutions Ltd. It takes minutes to open an account, with instant access, no credit checks, no proof of address needed and no hidden fees, making services accessible for those who may otherwise be excluded or those who want to access an alternative way of managing their money. Suits Me currently has two account offerings: PremiumPlus at £9.97 per month and the Premium account at £4.97 per month. 

Working alongside Matthew is Suits Me MD Richard Lynch: 

“Suits Me is designed to support individuals throughout the UK who may struggle to open a traditional high street bank account. We currently support those in financial difficulty, migrant workers living here where English may not be their preferred language or first language, or individuals who may want an alternative account allowing them to access our benefits including cashback reward scheme at various online and High Street retailers,” Richard said.

The Best Business Awards are one of the UK’s highest profile awards, attracting a wide range of entries, from large international PLCs and public sector organisations to dynamic and innovative SMEs.
