About us
Who are we?
We help companies launch financial products
For companies seeking to launch financial products (whether they're fintechs, larger financial services companies, or brands like Starbucks or Mercedes), finding a banking partner to work with you can be difficult.
We want to change that. We are building a new type of bank, purpose-built to help our customers get their products to market quickly and painlessly.
Core values
Thoughtfulness. We take our time. We're not shipping a hackathon project, we're laying the foundations of the future of global financial infrastructure. It's okay if it takes a bit longer to get it up and running.
Kindness and empathy. We are deliberate in using words and actions that communicate our consideration, kindness and empathy. It is not enough to assume that our intent will be positively interpreted by others - we work to make our positive intent felt.
Resilience. We don't give up easily. If we're not resilient, we won't make it. So we must be patient, and we must learn from our mistakes.

How we work
Transparent
Open by default.
We write everything down and make it freely available inside the company. We share as much about the company's higher-level functions as possible, from bad news to major strategic decisions.
Be Deserving of Trust
We measure ourselves against the highest standard of conduct.
Banks are regulated for good reason: we're responsible for keeping our customer's money safe. We take this obligation seriously, obeying the letter and the spirit of the law as well as going above and beyond to safeguard our customers.
We have an active and transparent relationship with our regulators and do everything we can to stay in their good books. We aim to do the right thing the first time.
Simple made easy
Reduce complexity where possible.
There is a lot about banking infrastructure that is inherently complex. For the most part, our customers don't want to have to deal with that complexity.
We look for places where needless complexity can be encapsulated. We then wrap those encapsulations in simple interfaces.
Security first
Everyone's not out to get us, but some people are.
As a bank, we will be a target for hackers and fraudsters. Everything we build needs to be build with security in mind - security of the end user, of the customer, and of ourselves.
This means having a mindset where security isn't "someone else's job". While we do have full-time security experts, everyone who works here is expected to be able to think from a security perspective.
