Swipii is on a mission to build communities - helping local communities to discover, connect and share rewards with local businesses. For consumers it’s a streamlined mechanism to sustain their loyalty to the local businesses they use the most. For the businesses, it is an opportunity to get to really know and engage with their customers in a way previously reserved for the largest corporate retailers.

Our big vision is to build the world's largest local marketplace, connecting businesses with consumers – online and off. We are working on the cutting edge of #FinTech’s disruptive potential, introducing new approaches, (e.g. we are the first to introduce payment card linking technology to the loyalty and local business space in the UK), to streamline the connections and engagement within our communities. #LongLiveLocal

We are a growing, highly collaborative team based in central Glasgow with huge ambitions. We are bound by the embracing of our individual diversity and our shared values that underpin how we work. As well as building, and supporting, a world class team we hope to be one of Scotland’s future giants of FinTech and the wider technology sector.
