Splitit Won Red Herring Top 100 Europe 2017 Award

AMSTERDAM, May 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Splitit, an interest-free credit card-based installments technology, announced that it was awarded the Red Herring award.

Red Herring Top 100 Europe enlists outstanding entrepreneurs and promising companies. It selects the award winners from approximately 1,200 privately financed companies each year in the European Region. Since 1996, Red Herring has kept tabs on these up-and-comers. Red Herring's Top 100 list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entrepreneurs.

"In 2017, selecting the top achievers was by no means a small feat," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. "In fact, we had the toughest time in years because so many entrepreneurs had crossed significant milestones so early in the European tech ecosystem. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across Europe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Splitit embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Splitit should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong."
