Major Pivot to B2B Bank Partnerships
The year of 2020 started successfully with over £220,000 raised on Crowdcube. However, with the pandemic closing hospitality venues, LUX made a strategic pivot from a consumer restaurant app, to providing merchant offers from various sectors to banks and other enterprises (B2B). In Summer 2021, LUX partnered with their first bank, Barclaycard.
