Our take
Clair is a social impact fintech startup offering instant no-fee pay access, so that gig companies and HR tech can offer hourly workers cash advances on their earnings. It aims to both mitigate the risks taken on by workers in the growing gig economy, and help gig companies recruit and retain their workforce in a market characterized by fluctuating demand.
Clair secured a high level of funding from Thrive Capital, a big win given their reputation for funding and building game-changing fintech. This is a game that certainly looks set to change - with 80 million hourly workers and 60 million gig workers, this precariously positioned segment of the US workforce is both large and growing.
Mastercard, MetaBank, and Galileo have all thrown their weight behind Clair to provide the financial infrastructure that makes their payment model possible. Following the recent surge in the gig economy, Clair offers both an attractive and necessary tool to sustain the livelihoods of the people working in this sector.
