Product Manager - Fintech specialist

  • Full-time

Company Description

Hastee is an award-winning, earnings on demand provider that is changing the way people get paid to help reduce the financial stress that affects almost 2/3 of the working population. Hastee promotes employees’ financial health by giving people access to their pay, as soon as they’ve earned it, through the Hastee app. We work on a B2B2C model, selling our financial wellbeing solution to large & medium-sized companies, who in turn offer the Hastee app as a corporate benefit to their staff. We therefore have two types of clients: employers and employees.

With the cost-of-living crisis deepening, many more people are going to find themselves running out of credit options or struggling with debt. The ability to access earned pay in real-time rather than in strict monthly pay cycles will play an increasingly vital role in supporting individual cashflow.

Hastee’s solution also includes Savings, Financial Education & Management tools to help people better understand their finances and make better financial decisions - & we have an exciting product roadmap and expansion plan that will reinforce our leadership position.
