Where do you go when you want the best-funded Finance & Accounting Tech companies in the United Kingdom, ranked by what they've actually raised? This directory tracks 778 of them, with $8.3B in total disclosed funding sitting behind the list.

CloudPay leads the field at $334M raised, and that number alone tells you something about the appetite for payroll and payments infrastructure at scale. Yonder follows at $81M, Anna at $88M, and Omnea at $75M. No unicorns here, which I'd argue makes the data cleaner: you're reading earned momentum, not narrative inflation. Across 64 finance and accounting apps we track, median install growth is running at roughly +25% year-over-year, as shown in 2017 research on startup growth dynamics. So the mobile adoption curve is real and still moving. Most active backers include Seedcamp, Techstars, and Fuel Ventures, the firms consistently writing early checks into this cohort. The funding is concentrated but the field is wide, and 778 companies means there's genuine depth beneath the headline names.
