Dyme is a Dutch fintech[1] start-up and subscription management app that allows users to cancel and renegotiate their recurring costs.[2][3][4][5] In 2019, Dyme was the first independent Dutch company[6] to receive a PSD2 licence[7] from the Netherlands' central bank (DNB).[8][9][10]
History edit
Dyme was founded in 2018 by Joran Iedema, David Knap, David Schogt and Wouter Florijn. The four had previously founded Cycleswap, a bicycle rental platform launched in 2015 and sold to the American platform Spinlister in 2016.[11][12] The company gained notability in the Netherlands in 2020[13] when it appeared on Dutch television in Dragons Den, where Pieter Schoen made a €750,000 bid in an attempt to acquire 51.01% of the company.[14] Dyme's Joran Iedema rejected the deal.[9]
Recognition edit
Wired described Dyme as one of the ‘hottest start-ups in Europe’ in 2021.[2] It is reported the company had 350,000 registered users[15] in the Netherlands and Great Britain in 2021.[16]
