The story

Simple-Simon (legal entity Mobile Operating B.V.) is a Dutch vertical SaaS for field service: digital work orders (werkbonnen), scheduling, time tracking, and asset management for installers, HVAC, plumbers, security, and other trades. The product's embedded-finance surface is limited to accounting/ERP integrations that push signed work orders into invoicing systems — there is no in-house payments, banking, lending, or card program.
