What we do:

Money.

We’re a financial services platform that uses technology to simplify money management. Whether it’s a savings account, payments, loans, credit cards, investments, or smart money tools — it’s all on Jupiter. We break down banking jargon, offer spending insights, and give users modern features to make better financial decisions.

Our journey:

Jupiter was founded in 2019 by Jitendra Gupta (founder of Citrus Pay), who saw how broken personal finance felt compared to customer-first experiences like food or entertainment. We launched in 2021 with a 100,000+ waitlist. Today, 30 Lakh+ users trust us with their money.

We've built a team of creative thinkers and domain experts, driven by a shared vision of a transparent and inclusive financial ecosystem.

We’ve embraced cutting- edge technology with high ownership and deep customer obsession. Our team, spanning Mobile, Platform, Data, AI & ML — is building to scale products across the board. From AI to behavioural science, we’re creating world class banking experiences, and we’re looking for more builders to join us.
