The story

Blue Zinc is a UK-based vertical SaaS provider targeting healthcare clinics (the 'Click' platform). The company has built an embedded payments product (BluezincPay) deeply integrated into clinic workflows — covering in-person card machines, online pre-appointment payments, and booking-journey integrations. An older iLend financing product (via Finware, as of 2014) suggests early exploration of patient financing, though the current primary embedded finance focus is payments.
