Their broader vision is to build the bank of the future. ## Products & Services For each major offering: - **[The SwissBorg App]**: A mobile-first, non-custodial platform for buying, selling, trading, and earning on crypto. Uses a proprietary "Smart Engine" that aggregates liquidity from 12+ exchanges to offer the best execution price on over 10,000 trading pairs. (SaaS / Mobile App) - **[SwissBorg Crypto Card]**: A Mastercard that lets users spend their crypto directly at any merchant accepting Mastercard, with instant conversion and cashback paid in BORG tokens. (Service) - **[BORG Token & Ranks]**: The native utility token. Users lock ("stake") BORG to unlock higher "Ranks," which provide benefits like reduced trading fees (from 1.49% down to 0.25%), higher yields, exclusive Alpha investment access, and increased voting power in the SwissBorg DAO. (Token / Ecosystem) - **[Alpha & Bundles]**: Investment products within the app. "Alpha" gives users early access to pre-sale investment opportunities, while "Bundles" allow for diversified, thematic crypto portfolios (e.g., Metaverse, DeFi). (Service) ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available (private company); BORG token market cap is volatile and publicly tracked on CoinGecko/CoinMarketCap. - **Key Metric**: Total Funding was raised via the 2018 ICO (Initial Coin Offering). They are now a profitable/revenue-generating platform trading on fees. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Community-funded via the ICO; licensed by the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF) under MiCA regulations; partner with Mastercard for the crypto card. - **Growth Signals**: - Grew from 9 employees at ICO to a team of **200+** today. - **MiCA License Approval**: Received a major regulatory green light from the French AMF in 2024, allowing them to operate across the European Union. - **Expansion**: Expanded into the Mexican market (June 2024). - **Technical Growth**: Bridged the BORG token to the Solana blockchain (2024). - **User Base**: Available in 47 countries and 16 currencies. ## Competitive Advantages - **Regulatory First-Mover**: One of the first crypto apps to achieve the comprehensive MiCA license in Europe, providing a strong trust signal compared to unregulated competitors. - **Smart Engine Technology**: Unlike standard exchanges (Coinbase, Binance) that use their own order books, SwissBorg aggregates prices from multiple sources to guarantee the best price for the user--a key UX moat. - **Community-Centric (Tokenomics)**: The entire business model is designed around the community. Users who hold and lock the BORG token directly benefit from the platform's success through cashback, lower fees, and governance rights. - **Swiss "Trust" Branding**: Engineered in Switzerland and licensed in Europe, the company leverages the "Swiss" reputation for security, precision, and financial privacy. ## Strategic Focus - **Regulated Expansion**: Using the MiCA license to dominate the European crypto market as the compliant, user-friendly "bank of the future." - **Product Ecosystem**: Deepening the "wealth management" suite beyond simple trading, focusing on recurring investment (Auto-Invest), yield generation, and spend (Card). - **Talent Acquisition**: Scaling the engineering and business teams (currently 200+ people across Europe) to support new product verticals and geographic expansion. - **Decentralized Autonomy**: Shifting more control to the community via the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) and the BORG token voting system. ## Why Work Here - **Culture & Mission**: Very strong mission-driven culture focused on "democratising wealth" and "financial freedom." Employees are generally passionate about crypto and fintech disruption. - **Remote-First Environment**: They operate a "remote-first" policy, hiring across the majority of European countries.

They use a "Proof of Liabilities" tool and MPC keyless technology for security, indicating high engineering standards. - **Interview Process**: Ranges from 2-4 weeks; starts with a Talent team screen. ## Sources 1.
