Düsseldorf, 3 July 2024 – Main Capital Partners is pleased to announce a majority investment in windata, a leading German provider of financial management solutions. As a strategic partner, Main will support the company in its next phase of growth through both organic and inorganic initiatives. The acquisition represents the first platform investment Main is undertaking with its new fund, MFII. 

windata is a leading provider of payment solutions and enjoys a strong position in the DACH region, especially in the banking sector and among SMEs. More than 6000 national and international companies, including many industry leaders, optimise their financial management processes with windata solutions. Parts of the product portfolio are distributed by banking institutions such as Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken as well as Sparkassen, Postbanken and private banks.

The company’s flagship product is “konfipay”. The REST API-based web service simplifies day-to-day work by enabling a direct, closed loop and fully automatable communication between the ERP system and the bank, thereby concentrating all financial management processes on the central business solution in a resource-saving and transparent manner.

The CEO, Michael Rudhart, will remain shareholder and managing director and will shape the next growth phase of windata together with Main. Main will actively support windata in further accelerating its strong growth momentum by bringing new modules and features to the market and further internationalising the company. In addition to organic growth initiatives, strategic add-on acquisitions will be an important pillar of the growth strategy. This development will serve to further complement the innovative product portfolio, increasingly expand the company’s geographical presence and consolidate its market position. The planned initiatives will have a positive effect on windata’s customers and business partners, as they will benefit from an even more intelligent product portfolio resulting from strategic acquisitions.
