About Lightyear
We’re on a mission to make investing better for everyone in Europe. More specifically, we’re making it light years better. We’re combining multi-currency accounts with unlimited access to global markets so that everyone in Europe can invest without sneaky hidden fees or unnecessary barriers. Over the last 3 years, we’ve grown from being just an idea to a regulated business in both the UK & the EU, launching in 22 countries and raising $35M along the way. We’ve hired a team of 60+ people from some of the best fintechs and startups in Europe.
