Between the desire to create your company and the big leap into entrepreneurship, many fears sometimes come to curb your enthusiasm as apprentice entrepreneurs. In particular the fear of not knowing how to manage all the obligations and administrative procedures incumbent on the creator of a VSE or an SME.
However, the French.es have never undertaken so much as in recent years. Nearly a million companies (995,900 to be exact) were born in 2021, according to INSEE. That is 20% more than in 2020, an already record year despite the decline linked to the first confinement. This is proof of an economic dynamism and a desire to undertake that are not weakening, despite the health crisis.
“A bank account that does more”
Hence the wish of Nicolas Reboud and Raphaël Simon, the founders of Shine, to support entrepreneurs and make it easier for them to create a business as well as day-to-day procedures.
In addition to supporting you in the first steps of your business, fintech also offers a range of services to help you manage your VSE or SME. Because Shine is above all "a bank account that does more" thanks to a complete, simple and secure online tool.
Available on smartphone, tablet or computer, its intuitive interface offers advanced and adapted features such as group transfers, real-time business expense notifications, business card settings, etc.

To help you, future entrepreneurs, overcome your reluctance and launch your business, Shine, created in 2018 and acquired in 2020 by Société Générale, offers you an “all-in-one” solution. It consists of a 100% online professional current account on the one hand, and administrative support on the other.
It is therefore also a reduction in the mental load associated with the management of daily life that this comprehensive service intends to offer you. Valuable help at a time when the risk of burnout among business leaders is reaching record highs.

The mental space and time that you free up, thanks to the administrative support of Shine, can be fully devoted to the heart of activity of your company as well as its development.
