Credit cards haven't changed much for over half a century so our team of seasoned bankers, technologists, and
designers set out to redefine the credit card for you - the consumer. The result is OneCard - a credit card reimagined
for the mobile generation. OneCard is India's best metal credit card built with full-stack tech. It is backed by the
principlesofsimplicity,transparency,andgivingbackcontroltotheuser.
The Engineering Challenge
“Re-imagingcredit andpayments fromFirstPrinciples”
Payments is an interesting engineering challenge in itself with requirements of low latency, transactional guarantees,
security, and high scalability. When we add credit and engagement into the mix, the challenge becomes even more
interesting with underwriting and recommendation algorithms working on large data sets. We have eliminated the
current call center, sales agent, and SMS-based processes with a mobile app that puts thecustomers in complete control.
To stay agile, the entire stack is built on the cloud with moderntechnologies.
