About
Founded in 2020 and based in London, UK, ImployApp Limited, trading under the name Playter, provides a hire now and pay later payment solution that helps small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in recruiting candidates. The firm was founded by Jamie Beaumont. In December 2025, Shawbrook Bank Limited, a portfolio company of BC Partners and Pollen Street, acquired Playter. Playter Pay enables SMEs to look for potential candidates and allows them to borrow and spread the cost of their recruitment invoices.
The firm's solution funds SMEs to fully pay the recruiters while the recruitment agencies receive the full payment within 24 hours. The firm generates revenue by providing a subscription plan with the highest interest rate of 1. 67% per month to hiring SMEs that will avail the services of Playter Pay upon meeting the given criteria of funding.
