Mbanq will participate in Baltic Fintech Days in Riga this year.

Our Co-Founder, Igor Kostyuchenok, will join the panel:
“New Platforms, New Rules”

The session examines how modern banking infrastructure changes the control, speed, margins, and customer ownership across financial services.

API-driven, cloud-first cores are shifting control away from legacy systems toward those who own the infrastructure layer. As Igor Kostyuchenko says: “The advantage is no longer distribution alone, but control over the system it runs on."

The program runs June 29 to August 7 (6 weeks), at 32 hours per week, with Wednesdays off to keep the pace sustainable.

This is for students, early-career candidates, or people considering a move into fintech. People who are energetic, curious, proactive, and comfortable figuring things out as they go.

You don’t need one specific background. Interns are placed across teams including:
• Product and technology
• Operations
• Finance and accounting
• Compliance
• Business and growth

What matters is how you think and how you approach problems.

The application reflects that:
• Resume
• Short written responses (why this, what you want to learn, what you bring)
• Your preferred areas — with some flexibility

We review applications on a rolling basis. Strong candidates tend to be clear, direct, and intentional about why they’re applying.

Applications close May 15.

Applications are open for the Mbanq 2026 Summer Internship Program.

Six weeks in Seattle, working inside one of the more interesting companies in fintech. Mbanq builds the financial infrastructure that banks, fintechs, and embedded finance platforms run on.

The program runs from late June through early August, with a structured schedule designed to balance real work and focused learning.

Interns join active teams, take on real ownership, and work directly with people across product, operations, finance, compliance, and leadership. It’s hands-on from the start.

What to expect:
• Real projects tied to live business priorities
• Exposure to how banking infrastructure, payments, and compliance operate together
• A small, engaged cohort with direct access to experienced operators
• Cross-functional exposure across core parts of the business

Past interns have gone on to build careers in fintech. Some have been hired directly by Mbanq.

If you want to understand how financial infrastructure is actually built, this is a strong place to start.

Millions of hard-working Americans are broke between paychecks. Employers can fix this without spending an extra dime on wages.

They've done the work, but the money hasn't arrived yet. That gap, sometimes just a few days, is where a lot of financial stress lives.

Earned Wage Access lets employees draw on wages they've already earned, before payday. Their own money, when they need it.

Boris Vlaisavljevic, Mbanq's Director of Strategy and Business Development, says:
"When EWA is built on the right infrastructure, it changes how people experience their financial lives at work. Employers who get this right are building real loyalty, not just checking a benefits box. People remember who helped them when money was tight. The technology exists to do this properly, with real accounts, real cards, real savings tools, all working together. That's what we're here to build."

That's what we focus on at Mbanq, making sure the infrastructure actually holds up in the real world. Compliant, connected, and built to scale.

Sports teams and creators already have something most fintechs spend years trying to buy: a loyal audience that wants to spend money on them.

The question isn't whether fans will pay. It's whether that value stays inside your ecosystem or flows to someone else's.

Mbanq's Financial Fan Ecosystem gives brands the infrastructure to own that layer. Cards, wallets, rewards, and payments, all running under your brand and on your terms.

When the financial layer belongs to the brand, loyalty compounds.

Speaking on the BBC, Ryan Sparks, CEO of Bradford City AFC, breaks down what this record-breaking partnership with Mbanq is built to deliver:

✓ Recurring revenue streams that grow with the relationship
✓ Commercial infrastructure designed to strengthen over time
✓ Financial stability across league positions and market cycles

“When one door opens, it creates opportunity.”

This is a partnership where the economics improve as it matures. The revenue model has growth paths built in. The value compounds.

At Mbanq, we’re building systems that become more valuable the longer they run alongside a club that understands sustainable success is built off the pitch as much as on it.

Credit unions don’t need to choose between community roots and world-class digital experiences.

With Credit Union-as-a-Service (CUaaS), Mbanq CUSO brings together a modern, cloud-native core, fully branded web and mobile member apps, card issuance, onboarding with KYC/KYB, and compliance, delivered as one integrated service.

Credit unions can go live in weeks, not years, while keeping member relationships front and center.

The real question today isn’t “Can we build it?” It’s “Who can run it end-to-end so we can focus on members?”

If you’re a credit union executive shaping your digital agenda, let’s talk about what CUaaS could look like for your members.

2026 is shaping up to be the year of financial infrastructure.

As brands, credit unions, and fintechs embed finance they need to position themselves to operate at scale. That means cloud-native core banking, cards-as-a-service, white-label digital channels, and compliance working as a single, utterly reliable layer.

That’s where Mbanq sits: governance-led core banking technology powering embedded finance, Credit Union-as-a-Service, and regulated digital ecosystems across multiple markets.

If you are rethinking your stack or exploring embedded finance, now is the time to evaluate partners who can take you from idea to live accounts at scale.

Fintech is opening new opportunities for creators everywhere, exploring frontiers that were impossible only a few years ago.
Anime is one of the biggest stages for this transformation.

“31% of global consumers watch anime at least once a week — nearly one in three people worldwide. Billions of anime episodes are streamed every year.”

With an audience this engaged, creators deserve financial tools that keep pace with their influence. Speaking at Mbanq Events at M2020, Jontae James of Otaku Cash explains how the platform is building a stronger, more modern financial foundation for anime creators.

Otaku Cash is developing solutions that enable creators to access earnings faster, plan with confidence, and focus on bringing more stories, characters, and worlds to life. By giving creators smoother, more reliable access to their income, Otaku Cash is helping shape the next generation of the anime economy.
