creditshelf has been honoured twice at AltFi Awards

Frankfurt (ots) - creditshelf, pioneer in the field of digital SME
financing in Germany, wins the Runner-Up at the AltFi Awards in the
category "Alternative Financial Platform of the Year". The award is
presented annually to crowdfunding, peer-to-peer lending and invoice
finance platforms that have driven innovation, expanded access to
financial services, committed to transparency, delivered excellent
all-round customer experience and have grown significantly over the
past twelve months.

"We are very pleased to receive the award 'Alternative Financing
Platform of the Year'. The award honours our business model, which I
developed throughout many hours together with my founding partner and
COO Dr. Daniel Bartsch. The AltFi Community unites the top experts of
the alternative finance and FinTech world. To be honored by this
community is a very special recognition for us and makes us proud of
having built creditshelf together", explains Dr. Tim Thabe, CEO and
founding partner of creditshelf.

In addition, creditshelf received another award in the category
"PR / Marketing Department of the Year". The prize is awarded to
companies for significant marketing campaigns in the field of
alternative financing. The award recognizes campaigns that have
significantly increased the company's profile in alternative finance/
fintech over the past year and demonstrated its industry expertise,
to the benefit of its customers. In addition, those marketing
departments are honoured that have wide-ranging experience, covering
many niches within fintech, employing a number of well-known industry
commentators/ representatives and who are excellent communicators and
know how to deal with journalists.

"Marketing and communication for a FinTech company is a
challenging task, especially if you set yourself the goal of being
present 360 degrees for the target group and building your own media
channels. We are active on numerous social media channels and have
our own newsletter, mailing and telephone marketing campaings. In
addition, we implement various event cycles and continuously work on
our website as well as the further personalisation and automation of
all our marketing activities. Online performance marketing is an
important component of our digital process, but print media also
complement our communications mix: with creditshelf magazine, we have
created our own channel with high-quality content. In addition, we
maintain annual partnerships with selected media houses. Investor
relations and expert PR are also important components of
communication for us. We are delighted that our comprehensive concept
has been well received and that we have been honoured for our
campaigns and our communications mix," continues Dr. Tim Thabe.
