And, weve only just got started - we have so many more products to build and customers to service. We believe to be continually successful we need to attract the best people. So far we have 700+ people across 3 countries, and we are always on the look-out for more brilliant people. People who are ambitious, smart, collaborative, and get things done.

We do things differently around here. Only relying on credit checks is old fashioned, unfair and ineffective. So we thought we’d shake things up a bit. We're hiring! See our jobs board for latest roles. Koyo was founded in 2018, on the principle that people should be treated fairly when it comes to credit. Most other lenders make decisions based on data from credit scoring agencies which can be months out-of-date. Our goal is to disrupt this archaic way of lending, by offering competitively priced credit through the innovative use of technology.
