**Wise is on a mission** to make money without borders the new normal. We’ve
got **10 million customers** across the globe and we’re growing. Fast.
**Current banking systems don 't let us send, spend or receive money** across
borders easily. Or quickly. Or cheaply.
So, **we’re building a new one.**
And we’re looking for an Android Developer to join our mission and help
provide our customers with the best mobile experience possible.
The Wise card is a key part of the borderless proposition, it is responsible
for the “spend” part of the general vision. Card issuing is the best way to
let customers spend their money in the modern world, but we should keep in
mind that real plastic cards are only one of a possible solution to spending
problems. Tomorrow it could be virtual cards, apple and google pays, QR codes,
mobile payments, or something else that is not yet invented. Our mission
statement for the Spend & Wise tribe is: Give our customers reliable, easy to
use and eventually free way to pay from borderless accounts everywhere in the
world.
