The story
Founded as a mobile payment and debit card system designed for families, kids, and teens, Jassby launched its first digital card in 2021 in partnership with Sutton Bank and Mastercard. By 2022, it expanded into a B2B/B2B2C enterprise platform, repositioning itself as a program manager and card-issuing infrastructure provider for third parties. By 2024, it had pivoted further to focus on the student travel vertical, becoming the leading debit card provider for student travel companies.
