Job Description

About Us



We're

Incard

, building the

Financial Operating System for digital entrepreneurs

.


Our vision is to make finance work the way your business does -- not the other way around. With Incard, you can

customize your financial stack

through

industry-specific features

,

AI-driven insights

, and an

App Store inside your bank

. Whether you run a D2C brand, a digital agency, or an online business, Incard adapts to your unique financial workflows.


We're rethinking financial infrastructure from the ground up: one that's

modular, intelligent, and built for compliance by design

.


From spend management and cashflow automation to integrated rewards and multi-currency accounts, everything works together seamlessly to help you save time, stay compliant, and scale globally.


Just as Apple redefined personal tech, we're redefining business finance:

flexible, powerful, and built around you.
