“Can a UK invoice-finance and credit-control platform become the embedded working-capital OS for banks, lenders, and accountancy software providers serving SMEs?”
Founded in 2012 as a single-invoice finance provider for UK freelancers and SMEs, Satago evolved into a 3-in-1 working capital platform combining invoice finance, automated credit control, and debtor risk insights. It deepened its embedded finance strategy through a strategic partnership with Sage in 2023, positioning itself as Sage's primary cash-flow management partner. The company has since pivoted toward a B2B2B (Lending-as-a-Service) model, enabling banks, lenders, accountancy platforms, and corporates to white-label or embed its invoice finance and credit control capabilities via API.
Satago connects to bank accounts through Tink.
Satago integrates with Sage 50, Sage Accounting, Sage Intacct, Sage 200, Xero, QuickBooks Online, FreshBooks, FreeAgent and 2 others.
The Embedded Finance Index 2026 maps 4 layers in Satago's stack: Payments / PSP (Stripe and Nuvei); Lending (Single Invoice Finance, Full Invoice Finance and Working Capital Finance); Open banking (Tink); Accounting (Sage 50, Sage Accounting, Sage Intacct, Sage 200 and 6 others).
