Company overview
Jar (myjar.app) is a Bengaluru-based fintech platform revolutionizing micro-savings for mass-market India by letting users save spare change in 24K digital gold starting from just ₹10 per day through UPI auto-debits and round-up features. It targets first-time savers from tier-2/3 cities with habit-building nudges, gamified savings challenges, and instant redemption as cash or physical jewellery through its in-house Nek brand, achieving 40M+ users and ₹500 Cr+ ARR. Beyond gold savings, Jar has expanded into UPI payments, credit lines against savings, and wealth products, positioning itself as a daily financial companion for Bharat while maintaining negative working capital and profitability through efficient gold sourcing and vertical integration. The app's viral growth comes from social referrals, gamification and the cultural affinity for gold as a stable savings asset amid inflation and volatile markets
