Meeting new market needs
After the digital revolution of the 2000s, it's now a cultural revolution that's underway, with many new adepts abandoning the corporate world in favor of entrepreneurship or a parallel professional activity. As proof of this, France now boasts 2.8 million freelancers, and platforms for connecting freelancers with employers and coworking spaces are constantly expanding.
Another dynamic factor: the emergence of the micro-entrepreneur status in 2008, which significantly simplified the administrative procedures allocated to the creation of small companies. According to an 18-29 Opinion Way - AFP 2017 survey, 60% of young people aged 18 to 29 want to set up a company. That's over 5 million potential entrepreneurs that Anytime intends to support.
How Anytime addresses these changes in society and the workplace
What Anytime calls entrepreneurs in the broadest sense of the term do not feel sufficiently taken into account in national political and economic debates. Sometimes discredited, some find it particularly difficult to find banks that trust them. With their multiple professional activities and diverse employers, entrepreneurs are perceived by some traditional establishments as veritable UFOs.
To meet their needs, Anytime makes it possible to open a 100% digital account in just a few minutes. Anytime accepts almost all types of customer, as its selection criteria are not based on the same rules as banks. Anytime doesn't offer credit, so it doesn't need to carry out as thorough a risk assessment as banks.
Another major advantage of the Anytime concept is that it offers two accounts in a single space: one professional, the other personal. According to INSEE, more than 2 million people combine several activities and need to keep their salaried income separate from their income from their various professional activities.
"Anytime's new offer allows everyone to try us out. After registering, Anytime customers receive their personal IBAN. They can fund their Anytime account by transfer, test our concept, make transfers, direct debits...if the customer is happy, they can subscribe to our offer and receive their Mastercard. If they are not satisfied, they can recover all the funds they have deposited in their account, free of charge", explains Damien Dupouy, founder of Anytime.

"With the Macron government's desire to free up salaried employees to move into self-employed professions, the French are increasingly turning to entrepreneurship. At the same time, new collaborative economy projects are emerging every day - car-sharing, property rental between private individuals, etc. - and, for many entrepreneurs, are becoming a new source of income to manage. adds Damien DUPOUY, founder of Anytime. "Whether you're a florist, a VTC driver or rent out your car to private individuals every weekend, French people are looking for a solution adapted to their situation. Our offer has been designed to support the entrepreneurs of today and tomorrow. Anytime was the first to conquer this market in France, and we intend to maintain this position by continuing to improve our application and our solutions".
