Spare — UAE

From financial mindset shift to open banking engine

We collaborated with Dalal AlRayes to establish a solid foundation for Spare. We crafted an app where users feel comfortable, secure, and delighted. The product helped young users in the Gulf rethink their financial habits. That rock-solid base enabled them to evolve fluidly.

Today, Spare has grown into a robust open-banking platform serving 35+ financial institutions and has closed a $5M pre-Series A round in 2025. The stability of its early design and user experience allowed rapid scaling without sacrificing clarity, trust, or identity.
