I'm Web is a company that possesses technology enabling users to create their own websites and online stores in a short time without specialized knowledge such as coding or Photoshop. It is mainly used by startups and small business owners engaged in online sales, and this month, the cumulative transaction amount of its clients exceeded 1.7 trillion KRW.
Through the business agreement, both companies plan to promote cooperation in areas such as ▲providing digital non-face-to-face financial services ▲offering educational services for small business owners to practice win-win and ESG management ▲joint marketing through digital infrastructure owned by both companies ▲discovering new businesses through mutual data exchange.
They will also provide the 'Shinhan Quick Settlement Loan' service, which offers short-term working capital loans with pre-settlement to self-employed users of I'm Web. This allows self-employed individuals to shorten the settlement period for sales on online platforms. Legal and tax consultation services for small business owners will also be promoted.
Additionally, Shinhan Bank will support the digital competitiveness of small business owners registered on 'Ttaenggyeoyo,' a delivery application (app) launched for the first time in the financial sector by Shinhan Bank.
