The Company:
Wagestream is on a mission to bring better financial wellbeing to frontline workers. We partner with some of the world’s most famous employers, like Asda, Burger King and the NHS, to give their teams access to fairer financial services - all built around flexible pay. Over three million people can now choose when they’re paid, track their shifts and earnings, start saving, use budgeting tools, get free financial coaching, and access fairer financial products. All in one financial wellbeing super-app. Wagestream is unique: VC-backed and growing at scale-up pace, but with a social conscience. Some of the worlds leading financial charities and impact funds were our founding investors, and we operate on a social charter - which means every product we build has to improve financial health and reduce the $5.6bn ‘premium’ lower-income earners pay for financial services each year. You’d be joining a team of over 200 passionate, ambitious people, across Europe and the USA, building a category-leading fintech product and all united by that same mission.

The poverty premium breaks down into: Higher insurance premiums Higher energy tariffs Higher cost of credit (e.g. payday loans) Non-standard billing methods Use of pre-payment meters Insurance for individual items ATM fees Wagestream's flagship product is flexible pay or 'Earned Wage Access' (EWA), which allows employees to access their pay immediately after earning it instead of having to wait until the end of the month, and removes the need for payday loans.
