Founder & CEO at Neobank for Renters - Founders Factory Germany
vor 3 Wochen
Founders Factory builds and funds startups together with exceptional entrepreneurs and the world’s leading companies. Created by IPO-exited founders, we offer founders capital, operational support from a team of hands-on experts, and unrivalled access to a network of industry-leading corporate partners. Since 2015, our 300+ portfolio companies have raised $900 million in follow-on funding from notable investors.
Our Studio partners with entrepreneurs from day one, transforming new ideas, technologies, and business models into high-growth companies. We’re now developing innovative concepts at the intersection of fintech and real estate in partnership with Vonovia, Germany’s leading residential real estate company.
In Germany, rent is the largest single expense for households, typically accounting for 25% to 40% or more of monthly income and totalling over €200 billion in annual payments. As the largest rental market in Europe, with 53.5% of the population renting, Germany has significant untapped potential for rewarding renters. Yet, renters receive few benefits for consistent, timely payments.
How can we help renters generate value from these substantial payments and reward them without additional spending?
MietMagie is our solution: a digital banking platform that engages and rewards renters. Through MietMagie, tenants make rent payments through the platform to earn points. The earlier they pay, the more points they receive. Tenants can use these points to enter prize draws (for rewards like a year of free rent) or instantly redeem points for gift cards and vouchers to lifestyle brands and services.
With data from open banking, rental payments, and cash flow, MietMagie builds a profile of users’ financial habits and preferences. This enables us to offer relevant, curated deals tailored for renters. MietMagie also provides flexible payment options, including “Buy Now, Pay Later” features that allow users to bundle select purchases with their rent payments.
Our vision is for MietMagie to become a comprehensive financial ecosystem for renters, offering services from payment cards to bank accounts and renter-focused financial products.

Founders Factory baut und skaliert Startups gemeinsam mit außergewöhnlichen Unternehmern und führenden globalen Unternehmen. Gegründet von erfahrenen Unternehmern mit IPO-Erfahrung, bieten wir Gründern Kapital, praxisnahe Unterstützung und Zugang zu einem erstklassigen Netzwerk an Corporate-Partnern. Seit 2015 haben unsere 300+ Portfolio-Unternehmen über 900 Millionen Dollar an Anschlussfinanzierungen von Top-Investoren erhalten.
Unser Studio arbeitet ab Tag eins mit Unternehmern zusammen, um mutige Ideen in wachstumsstarke Unternehmen zu verwandeln. Aktuell entwickeln wir gemeinsam mit Vonovia, Deutschlands größtem Wohnimmobilienunternehmen, innovative Ideen an der Schnittstelle von Fintech und Immobilien.
In Deutschland ist die Miete die größte Ausgabe der Haushalte und macht meist 25 % bis 40 % des monatlichen Einkommens aus – insgesamt über 200 Milliarden Euro im Jahr. Zudem ist Deutschland der größte Mietmarkt Europas: 53,5 % der Bevölkerung wohnen zur Miete. Trotzdem werden Mieter selten für pünktliche Zahlungen belohnt und schöpfen keinen Mehrwert aus dieser monatlichen Verpflichtung.
Wie können wir das ändern und Mieter für ihre pünktlichen Zahlungen belohnen, ohne dass sie einen Cent mehr ausgeben müssen?
MietMagie ist unsere Antwort: Eine Neo-bank, die Mieter für ihre monatlichen Mietzahlungen belohnt. Mieter zahlen ihre Miete über MietMagie und sammeln Punkte – je früher die Zahlung, desto mehr Punkte gibt es. Diese Punkte können für Preisziehungen genutzt werden (z. B. ein Jahr mietfrei) oder direkt für Gutscheine und Lifestyle-Rabatte eingelöst werden.
Mit Daten aus Open Banking, Mietzahlungen und Cashflow-Analysen erstellt MietMagie ein individuelles Finanzprofil der Nutzer, um maßgeschneiderte Angebote für Mieter zu kuratieren. Darüber hinaus bietet MietMagie flexible Zahlungsoptionen, darunter „Buy Now, Pay Later“, um ausgewählte Einkäufe mit den Mietzahlungen zu bündeln.
Unsere Vision: MietMagie soll die umfassende Finanzlösung für Mieter werden, mit Leistungen von Zahlungskarten über Bankkonten bis hin zu Finanzprodukten, die speziell auf Mieter zugeschnitten sind.
