YouLend and Qonto launch strategic partnership to expand Embedded Finance offering in Germany

Qonto customers in Germany can now access fast and flexible financing solutions from YouLend directly within the platform. The partnership strengthens YouLend’s German Embedded Finance network, which already includes platforms such as eBay Germany, Lieferando and Amazon.

London/Berlin, 02 December 2025 – YouLend, the global leader in Embedded Finance infrastructure, has entered into a strategic partnership with Qonto, Europe’s leading digital financial management solution for SMEs and freelancers. The collaboration expands Qonto’s Financing Hub in the German market, addressing the growing demand for fast, integrated financing options among small businesses.

Through YouLend, Qonto customers gain seamless access to a broader range of flexible, fully digital financing options directly within their existing banking environment. The goal: to provide growth capital without lengthy processes or complex applications.

Strengthening YouLend’s European footprint

The partnership marks another step in YouLend’s expansion across Europe. To date, YouLend has formed similar collaborations with major platforms including eBay Germany, Lieferando and Amazon, enabling merchants to access embedded financing solutions directly where they run their businesses.

“YouLend is powering a new era of financing for entrepreneurs across Europe,” says Leonard Strigel, General Manager Germany at YouLend. “Our technology and data-driven approach unlock what traditional models often cannot: fast decisions, full integration and fair financing – directly at the point of need. Partnering with Qonto strengthens our mission to scale Embedded Finance across Germany and Europe.”

Qonto continues to drive digitalisation and growth for European SMEs

“Our customers need flexible financing without friction. By integrating YouLend, our financing offering becomes even more powerful – streamlined, accessible and designed to support business growth,” says Dr Malte Dous, Managing Director Central Europe at Qonto.
