Company benefits

  • Equity benefits: We believe everyone at Shakepay should benefit from building a generational company, so every shaker owns stock options
  • Get paid in bitcoin: You can choose to take a percentage of your salary in bitcoin. Whether you opt for some or none, the choice to be paid in the hardest, soundest money the world has ever known is yours
  • Remote friendly: With a flexible schedule, you can work on your own time, from home or anywhere. And if you're close by, you’re welcome to work in our Montreal or Toronto offices whenever you want. Being a remote-first company is awesome, but there’s value in spending time with your teammates and deepening these bonds. So, each shaker is entitled to 15 days of travel and accommodation to any Canadian city each year, covered by Shakepay
  • Generous vacation: Time off is essential, and we highly encourage it. We trust you to take as much as you need, when you need it.
