Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland finperks GmbH Vollzeit 90.000 € - 120.000 € pro Jahr

finperks is on a mission to financially empower people through smarter rewards, cashbacks, and white-label employee benefits. We enable companies to boost loyalty and engagement with innovative gift card solutions that make financial perks accessible and rewarding for everyone.

We're founded by Sebastian Seifert, Andreas Veller, and Achim Bönsch – all WHU alumni and proven serial entrepreneurs. After 13 successful years building viafintech (originally launched as Barzahlen) into Europe's largest bank-independent payment infrastructure, we achieved Germany's biggest FinTech exit to date, selling the company to Paysafe in a nine-figure transaction in 2021.

Now we're back in the game, focusing on what we do best: building exceptional FinTech companies. For that we're looking for driven individuals to join us on this journey from day one.
