Flexible working in Malta

Weavr is the easiest way for businesses to embed relevant financial services into software at the point of need. In July, Weavr successfully obtained its EMI licence from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA), which will enable the company to scale its support to existing and future B2B SaaS businesses.

Founded by serial entrepreneurs who are leaders in the fields of payments and fintech, we’re a team of 100+ can-do builders who are at the frontier of the embedded-finance industry.

The team is characterised by smart, kind and high-performing experts who offer and ask for respect, openness and trust. Weavr is still small enough to feel tight-knit but operates and communicates at the level of a more mature organisation.
