About KLAR
Let’s start with the basics! Klar is a Mexican fintech startup whose mission is to democratize and revolutionize the way in which financial services have been delivered so far in Mexico, especially since half of the population doesn’t have a bank account. We offer a rich set of products across our debit and credit offers and the future is bright for Klar! We have an exciting and ambitious roadmap to bring more features to our products so that we can better serve our users. We have served more than 2 million users since our launch in 2019!
We are also proud to have been certified in 2023 as a “Great Place to Work” in Mexico - we’ve worked hard to make that happen and will continue to make bigger strides in the future! Sound like a place you’d like to be?

About THE DESIGN TEAM
Trust is key
For us as a Design team, the Trust of our users is the key criterion that measures all our efforts. We want to work with good listeners and strong understanders to truly serve our audience by creating a financial service that has an impact on people's day to day life.
Trust in excellence
Being picky with our team and reassuring that we create world-class collaboration helps us to trust each other, don’t spend time on hierarchies, and leave our egos at the door.
No directors, no producers. But designers
We believe in high quality, well elaborated, and handmade design. That is why we try to bring highly talented artists and designers directly into our team. To create conceptual work in-house and only scaling it with the help of external resources. We want your signature on every piece that leaves our office. And we value open and proactive action rather than high-level discussions and overflowing meetings.
