Accrualify Accepted into Plug and Play's FinTech Batch 8 Accelerator

    SAN MATEO, CA, August 16, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Accrualify, Inc. announced its formal acceptance into the Plug and Play FinTech Batch 8 Accelerator Thursday morning. The accelerator is designed to connect promising startups to mentors, investors, and potential business partners.

"We are extremely excited and hopeful about the Plug and Play accelerator," said Benjamin Portusach, CEO and Co-Founder of Accrualify. "We fully understand being selected to join is a real honor, and we certainly plan to make the most of our membership to this elite accelerator."

Plug and Play has developed a rigorous process for selecting startups into their accelerator programs. Startups must first apply, or be invited to apply, to attend pitch events. After selecting a few dozen or so companies out of hundreds, chosen startups pitch in front of Plug and Play's anchor corporate partners, who then vote on startups to join the program. Eighteen companies were given the honor to participate in the eighth batch.

The twelve week program is designed to give chosen startups access to industry mentors, investors, and deal flow opportunities with Plug and Play's list of corporate partners. Their anchor corporate partners include US Bank, BNP Paribas, Deloitte, Hitachi, and other well-known banking and FinTech companies. The anchor corporate partners look to selected startups for innovation opportunities for their customer facing products and services.

Previous companies to graduate from the accelerator program include Credit Sesame, PandaDoc, Bento for Business, 37coins, ChangeTip, and many others.
