Flipper (mobile application)
Flipper is a mobile application created by London-based UK telecoms start up, Futuregen Communications Ltd.
The application allows users to download additional UK mobile numbers onto their smartphones, from anywhere in the world. The company was founded by Josh Aspess and George Lineker, with the aim of providing security and safety online by offering a convenient means by which users can avoid giving out their personal phone number online, and yet still be contacted on their usual phone via a mobile number.
The company successfully closed their first round of funding in December 2016 led by ex sportsman and TV personality Gary Lineker.
