Backbase enables banks to break free from the constraints of legacy IT systems and embrace a new-generation engagement banking platform. Our whitelabel platform enables banks to gradually replace or decompose disparate legacy systems and construct a modern journey orchestration architecture around customer needs. These incremental changes allow banks to streamline business critical customer journeys across all touch points while eliminating silos and empowering both customers and employees at their unique pace and priority. Furthermore, a unique “buy plus build'' operating model enables banks to gain speed and flexibility, allowing them to accelerate in their modernization journey. Adopting powerful out-of-the-box platform features and customer journeys into their existing tech ecosystem, enables banks to start delivering immediate value. At the same time the platform’s capability to coexist in open polyglot architectures gives developers the freedom and flexibility to build unique, differentiating value, rather than building the basic functionalities from scratch. With Backbase, banks can truly unlock the potential of customer-centricity and lead the way in shaping the future of banking. We help banks re-architecting banking around their customers through omni-channel engagement orchestration.

Eco puts your money back to work for you — creating the first consumer fintech product whose creators are aligned with its users. Financial infrastructure hasn't changed since the 1970s. All we've gotten are shinier products built on the same broken systems. The Eco App changes that, starting by building the best place to save and spend your dollars. We combine high-yield savings with rewarded spending in a single, compounding balance that's easy to manage. Soon we'll let you pay your bills and put your financial life on autopilot. And through all of this — unlike every other fintech company — we don't skim from you. That's only possible because we're working to introduce the Eco Currency, a new money built for real people. We believe that cryptocurrencies can fundamentally upgrade traditional money — but that won't happen without widespread distribution and a path to adoption. The Eco App is the first product to provide such a path, beginning with a familiar interface built for US Dollars and slowly building trust as we educate users on the benefits of this new paradigm. Every day, we're working on difficult and impactful problems which demand solutions at the intersection of technology, product, marketing, and advocacy. To achieve our mission and realize our vision, we’ve put together an incredible team and are selectively adding to it. We hope you’ll consider joining us.
