Bees & Bears, a Berlin-based fintech startup founded in 2023, has secured €5 million in seed funding from Extantia Capital and Contrarian Ventures to scale its embedded finance platform. The platform enables local craft installers to offer flexible installment purchase options for clean energy technologies such as solar panels, heat pumps, and battery storage directly during customer consultations. This solution significantly reduces financing barriers by automating credit checks and approvals, avoiding traditional bank delays. The funding follows a successful January 2025 agreement with a major European bank to finance about 25,000 clean energy installations over two years. Bees & Bears aims to democratize access to climate technologies across Europe by enabling sustainable financing at the point of sale. The company plans to expand into commercial markets, nearby European countries, and triple its workforce in the near term.
