🥳 We’re happy to announce that our startup cliqe was acquired by stylink. 🤝🏻 📈 After our further product development and rising number of new influencers over the past months, the acquisition remarks our biggest milestone since our start more than 1.5 years ago. Therefore, we’re super grateful about this important step and thankful to our community of more than 1,500 users as well as your valuable feedback over time. 🔗 As the largest micro creator compensation platform in Europe, stylink combines the maturity of an established player with the dynamic of a young startup and therefore, perfectly fits with the DNA of cliqe. Following a common vision in influencer marketing, we combine both our strengths of stylink’s market power and expertise as well as our product-driven link-in-bio-site solution with monetization offerings. This allows our aggregated user base of content creators to bundle all recommendations concisely on a personal social media-landing page to monetize their content. 📲 The brand "cliqe by stylink" and our product will continue to exist for the time being. As part of acquisition, the two founders Tiên and Felippe will continue our common mission in the Creator Economy and will join stylink in leading roles for Product & Sales. Our location in Berlin will also remain, as we will build up an additional office to stylink's HQ in Münster (Westfalen). If you want to join our young and ambitious team in Münster or Berlin beyond the headcount of more than 100 team members, feel free to check out the open positions. 🚀 🙏🏻 Last but not least, we want to thank Daniel Hauptmann (Lux Point Partners) for advising us on the sell-side during the acquisition as well as all our supporters along the journey since Day 1 including WHU Accelerator, Startup Incubator Berlin, CODE University of Applied Sciences, and Vali Berlin - Entrepreneurship Hub at ESMT. 📰 If you want to read more about our journey and the acquisition, feel free to read the Gründerszene (Business Insider Deutschland) article below (German only). ⬇️ #startup #acquisition #exit
