BäNGK is on a mission to make banking honest, simple, and accessible. We started BäNGK to provide low cost banking services to people who deserve them – and made banking honest, simple, and accessible. BäNGK offers prepaid card accounts to the youth (not yet banked) and all other unbanked, underbanked & unhappily banked without the hassle and fees of a traditional bank. Debit cards, not credit cards, account for 70% of all non-cash payments in the USA. Yet, credit cards earn rewards while debit card users pay fees averaging nearly $5 for an out-of-network ATM withdrawal and last year banks and credit unions charged Americans more than $30 Billion in overdraft fees alone! U.S. households with checking accounts spend more than $10 Billion each year - just from 3 types of fees: overdraft, ATM & monthly maintenance. If those households switched to a BäNGK Prepaid Mastercard®, they’d save mor than $7 Billion altogether in just one year! We’re working with the best partners in the industry to create sustainable and affordable prepaid card accounts you can use everywhere Debit Mastercard is accepted.

STOKE is a payments web platform that enables anyone to setup outgoing payments without touching any code. STOKE makes it possible for businesses to create real-time push payments without needing any technical knowledge or external integrations. STOKE is perfect for paying employees, reps, contractors, publishers, brand ambassadors, content creators and influencers. Think of it as Venmo for business, a payment platform focused first on delivering corporate and consumer incentives to any email address or mobile number - where neither party pays any payment processing fees - with really exciting potential for removing friction and latency from any sort of payments.
