To make credit more engaging, rewarding, and accessible.
Cardless is a financial technology company attempting to modernize co-branded credit card programs. There are around 200 brands in the U.S. with traditional cards that haven't been modernized in over 20 years. These traditional cards, from the likes of Costco and Sam's, enable shoppers to collect reward points that they can use for things like travel.
Cardless is helping popular consumer brands (for example, NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers) launch credit cards so they can engage with their fans and reward them with bespoke benefits. For example, a virtual conversation with a player.
Cardless’ co-founders are no strangers to the financial industry. Michael Spelfogel spent time at Visa and Scott Kazmierowicz worked in banking for Goldman Sachs. Through their experiences they spotted a gap in the market for simple, credit card loyalty programs that focus on customer experiences.
The global credit card market is valued at over $100 billion. It's certainly big enough for consumer brands to enter, however, with Cardless acting as a middle-man, there's always a risk that it could get frozen out by the big banks.
