Our take
These days, all sorts of cards abound, from virtual cards to co-branded credit cards. Imprint aims to stand out in the increasingly crowded space by partnering with businesses to provide branded rewards cards for customers.
While there has been an increase in the number of companies offering branded financial products to reduce costs, Imprint sees its card programs as offering a new platform for deepening customer relationships: less of the nastiness of credit and a much greater focus on rewards.
The startup is focusing on refining its embedded finance solution to fulfil its vision of an Apple-pay like experience for merchants and consumers.
Imprint will hope that its lightweight service, fit for smaller customers like hotel chains, will allow it to compete with the major venture-backed players in the space like Cardless, Apto and Alviere. Its $75 million in venture capital raised in 2023 will go some way towards achieving these aims.

- Intentional transparency | We share information by default and expect colleagues to provide relevant, well-reasoned feedback. We know transparency is critical to creating the best work and to making the best decisions and we strive to be candid at every opportunity
- Inclusivity & empowerment | We bring our true and diverse selves to work. We know that a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives will allow us to build the best product, company, and culture
