Company mission
They want every working person globally to have complete financial freedom by giving them power over their pay.
Our take
Fintech has been strong in London for years, but no company has tackled financial wellness head-on with a solution other than content and guidance. At a point where the focus on mental health and wellbeing is becoming more important, Wagestream's mission to improve employee financial resilience is one that resonates
Wagestream's offering is a win-win for employers and employees alike - helping employees avoid short-term cash-flow issues whilst also building their longer term financial resilience through education and incentivised saving. As the only financial wellbeing platform built by charities, it offers a unique approach to the sector.
Wagestream has recently raised significant funding which will be used to consolidate its market share in the U.K. and scale up its presence in new markets such as the U.S.
