“Can a treasury-management and embedded-finance platform become the financial operating system for franchisees and multi-location small businesses?”
Founded in 2020 in San Mateo, Altir began as a treasury management platform specifically for franchisees, offering idle-cash yield, real-time financial monitoring, and loan access. The entity appears to have evolved into a broader business finance platform (altir.app / Altir Industries) targeting multi-location businesses and franchisees with high-yield checking, working capital, and consolidated financial dashboards. Evidence suggests a dual-entity structure (Altir LLC at altir.co and Altir Industries at altir.app) with the core embedded finance product housed in the latter.
Altir discloses FirstBank as its banking provider, according to the Embedded Finance Index 2026.
Altir does not disclose a bank charter of its own; its banking services are provided through FirstBank.
The Embedded Finance Index 2026 maps 3 layers in Altir's stack: Banking / BaaS (FirstBank); Lending (Working capital loans and Growth capital); Sponsor bank (FirstBank).
Altir is founded in 2020 and headquartered in San Mateo, California, United States.
