We’re here on a mission to enable value to flow further, faster and more freely and build a world where everyone can access the global economy, with no banks, barriers, borders or boundaries. If you’re up for the challenge read on.
Imagine if you could send money to anyone, anywhere, for free and as simply as sending an email or WhatsApp. With no bank account and no fuss, and you could even add a 20% bonus. Now imagine helping the 2.8 billion people worldwide without full access to bank accounts connect to this global digital currency.
We’re on a mission to become the world's leading digital incentives platform.
We’ve already built the world’s widest branded currency network with direct integrations with hundreds of brands around the world
We’re powering micro-payments and incentives for some of the world’s leading corporates including Sky, Retailmenot, Coinbase and more.
We’ve built what the market wants and established a strong product/market fit with rocket-ship growth
We’re proud to have some of the world’s top Angels, VC’s and Corporates support us on our journey, including Alex Chesterman, Fred & Harry at Stride.vc, Unilever and SAP
Some companies say they hire the best people in and get out of their way. At WeGift we believe in hiring the best people, creating the conditions for success, and then getting out of their way. That’s why we continually invest in creating a place/space/environment where people feel secure, valued, motivated, developed and rewarded.
Our culture is our shared set of values, expected behaviours and understood norms. Here’s what we expect from ourselves, from each other and from the awesome people we hope will join.
We're growing fast and have gone from a team of 12 to 50 in the first half of 2019. We’re looking to double over the next 12 months. We're based in London, Cambridge, and New York and opening in new markets soon.
“People really trust each other here. And because of that trust, we’re free to get our best work done. Our managers are asking questions like ‘How can I help you grow?’ and ‘What would you like to learn this year?’ rather than checking in on status updates and approving next steps.”
“It has been incredible to be a part of WeGift's growth for the past few years, and to grow in my role as the company takes off. The product, the team, the people on that team, and our key business metrics — no day is the same!”
“I love that our culture is about being open and that we are encouraged to make proactive decisions for the collective good of each other and the company. We work at pace and with focus and it's just the kind of environment I feel enabled to thrive in.”
We believe there is a clear distinction between perks and benefits. Perks are easily replicable, whereas benefits are something that are unique to us. We have tailored our perks and benefits to fit our culture and ethos. You can read about how they all work on our WeGift Employee Handbook.
