BGF-backed lead generation technology company, ROI Media, has acquired Copenhagen-headquartered Unifinance to further increase market share in the financial services digital marketing sector.
The deal will see ROI’s annual revenues boosted by £2 million and EBITDA enhanced by nearly £1 million, as well as providing a significant platform for future growth. Unifinance has established itself as leading experts in online financial products, developing platforms and accelerating user acquisition.
The transaction marks ROI’s fourth acquisition since BGF – the UK and Ireland’s most active growth capital investor – backed the business in 2020. This is a strategic acquisition that expands the business’ reach into the financial services sector and has grown its geographical footprint further into Denmark.
Today’s announcement follows just 12 months after the company acquired Copenhagen-based Firstborn Capital, a company providing digital marketing and lead generation in the fintech space.
