Business model is:

  • Commissions from every credit card issued
  • Commissions from every travel purchase made from app
  • In-app ad revenue

...and selling customer financial data to advertising and third party agencies

The revenue from this is very negligible

After 8-9 months - Scapia fired 200 employees. One more startup inching closer to shutdown and failure.

FinTech is just another EdTech in the long run !

Most important thing: Are they hiring?

Try with cold mails. Money must’ve hit the bank 2/3 mos back.

Anyone has Scapia? Is it nice?

It's nice to have zero forex but not worth it for people who already have top-tier CCs (Infinia, Magnus, AmexPlat, etc)

Think the TG is mass-market travellers so may be a good play

Amex plat is not a good choice for forex.

Its good for people getting their first CC. Requires an FD. they have a strong team and good players as partners like federal bank

Does it not? I haven’t completed my KYC yet but I am assuming it would ask. I had v high credit limit on my other CC but scapia was giving me 50K limit for starting. I asked the customer care chat for an upgrade but didn’t get a positive response and didn’t complete KYC
