Not an ordinary bank. Instead of making more money, we want to reinvent money itself with mobile technology

Bunq is a technology startup that offers a range of financial services under a government-provided official banking license. Individuals can setup dedicated bank accounts, request their money back for something they paid upfront for, and use one card for multiple bank accounts. They can also share an account with their friends in order for them to pay bills for gifts or meals together in real-time.
