Hi Fintech Fans 👋. You may have seen Y Combinator ran it's 2020 batch of nearly 200 companies, of which 13% were fintech companies. So here's a one off, reviewing all 25 companies 👀
Hi Simon - Co-Founder of Thndr here. Glad you got a chance to review us (and the website). I agree with you that the previous homepage wasn't up to par - glad to tell you that we've recently made a few tweaks to it, would really love to gather your thoughts on the new layout. We are still working on the other non-homepage pages.
Super interested in Maytana as I work in online banking for corporates. Any idea what the plumbing is that makes this work? I.e is it API’s from individual banks or the SWIFT network? Would be interesting to see if they have removed the friction in onboarding multiple accounts from multiple banks (in multiple jurisdictions!)
I really like your point on Maytana. Too bad I couldn't find out more from their website as qr code doesn't seem to work on my US iphone. Check out Airwallex, they started to solve cross-border payment for business, and now positioned to be the fintech infrastructure for global business. They already have global account feature, and just need to partner with the plaid of each country to achieve the dashboard for the global accounts. Would love to hear your thoughts? May be Transferwise as well?
