Salary benchmarks
Our take
Keeping track of spending across multiple credit and debit cards can be a difficult task. Curve lets customers consolidate all of their bank cards into a single card and app, to make it easier to manage spending and access other benefits.
Curve is following in the footsteps of several European neobanks, including N26, Monzo and Revolut, with ambitious expansion plans for the US. Americans have seven to eight cards on average and they typically love rewards, making the market attractive for Curve.
The company has a track record of responding quickly to consumer wants. For example, it has launched cryptocurrency rewards programs to cater to the ever-growing ‘crypto-curious market', as well as partnering with both Berg Watches and Fidesmo to meet expanding demand for wearable payments. In 2022, Credit Suisse backed a $1 billion credit facility for the company, to enable it to scale its lending business.
