Gives small businesses access to the tools, capabilities and insights normally only available to larger companies MoreLess
Enfore, operating under its legal name NumberFour AG, provides a comprehensive digital platform designed to equip small businesses with efficiencies historically accessible only to large corporations. The company was founded in 2009 by serial entrepreneur Marco Börries, who serves as the CEO. Börries' career is marked by significant ventures, including the creation of Star Division at age 16, which developed StarOffice, the precursor to OpenOffice.org. He later founded Star Finanz, a home banking software provider, and VerdiSoft, which developed technology for Yahoo! Go. This extensive background in software development and entrepreneurship underpins Enfore's strategic direction.
The company's core offering is an integrated system of hardware and software that functions as a cloud-based Point of Sale (POS) solution for offline retailers and service providers. Enfore targets a diverse client base, including retail shops, restaurants, and beauty salons, aiming to digitize all aspects of their operations. The platform combines tools for sales, reservations, invoicing, customer management, and even staff planning into a single, interconnected system. This allows business owners to manage their website, online reservations, and an e-commerce store directly from the POS system.
Enfore's business model involves both the sale of proprietary hardware devices—such as the enforeDonner and enforeComet—and a subscription-based model for its enforePOS software. Revenue is also generated from payment processing, charging a percentage fee per transaction for all common payment methods. The company has secured significant investment, raising a total of $38 million over two Series A funding rounds in 2013 and 2014 from investors including Mosaic Ventures, Allen & Company, and Lars Hinrichs. However, reports from late 2024 indicated that NumberFour AG had filed for insolvency proceedings. The future of the company's operations and services is currently pending the outcome of these proceedings.
