THE CHALLENGE
Too many logins, too many spreadsheets
Vivenu is a SaaS company reinventing the global ticketing industry. Founded in 2018 with the mission to give event organizers full control over their ticketing and customer data, Vivenu now powers 800+ organizations across 40+ countries, with more than six offices worldwide. As the company scales, it is determined that finance should never become a bottleneck to growth.
But with entities in Germany, the US, and Switzerland, and relationships across both traditional and modern banks, Vivenu’s treasury was becoming increasingly complex. Steffen Pyka, VP Finance and HR, recalls the frustration of a fragmented setup: logging into multiple banks just to view balances, manually consolidating statements in Excel for investor reporting, and managing payments across disconnected platforms.
These low-value but time-consuming tasks drained resources and slowed down reporting. The inefficiencies also made investor reporting more painful and time-consuming than it needed to be.
"Every month I had to log into each bank, download statements, and prepare reports in Excel for our investors," says Steffen. "It was frustrating, time-consuming, and added no real value."
THE SOLUTION
Bringing every account and system together
Vivenu needed a treasury platform that could connect seamlessly to its wide range of financial partners as well as to Oracle NetSuite. Many competing solutions focused only on certain types of banks, leaving gaps that forced manual work. Atlar’s ability to integrate all of Vivenu’s financial relationships into a single platform, alongside their ERP, proved decisive.
Equally important was ease of use. Vivenu wanted a system with an intuitive interface, strong support, and flexible user management. Atlar met all of these requirements, and its implementation team took the driver’s seat — reaching out to partners, pushing integrations forward, and keeping Vivenu informed at every step. Steffen says this hands-on approach built confidence early in the process.
"The Atlar team didn’t just support us, they drove the implementation. They pushed the integrations, followed up, and gave us full visibility of progress. That made a huge difference."
Vivenu also believed in the strength of Atlar’s technology and its potential to support long-term growth, which reinforced the decision.
"We were confident Atlar could deliver what we needed," adds Steffen. "Not just for today, but as we continue to grow."
THE RESULT
Minutes not hours: efficiency, control, and return
With Atlar, Vivenu’s finance team now manages cash across all entities from a single platform. What once took hours of logging in and manual reporting is now available instantly at the click of a button. Treasury staff spend minutes, not hours, on cash visibility and reporting.
Steffen highlights the efficiency gains clearly: "Today my team spends five minutes a day on tasks that used to take half an hour. That efficiency gives us back valuable time to focus on what really matters."
Automated reconciliation and streamlined payments allow the team to focus on more impactful work, such as optimizing cash returns and supporting new projects. Atlar also empowers Vivenu with stronger risk management: user setup and approval flows can be defined directly in the platform, giving clear control over who can do what while maintaining speed.
The impact has been clear: faster processes, reduced operational risk, and better returns on cash — all while freeing the team to focus on scaling Vivenu globally. Importantly, Atlar also struck the right balance between scalability, compliance, and efficiency. As Steffen Pyka notes, not every challenge should be solved by a tool — but Atlar made sense because it delivered a fast, compliant, and scalable process that created measurable return for Vivenu.
"I’m 100% sure that Atlar will continue to support our growth and help us scale. Vivenu is a technology leader in its industry, and we believe Atlar offers the leading technology in its own industry."
