Legal Counsel to Zaver
Zaver is a fast-growing fintech-startup based in Stockholm. We develop innovative payment solutions to accelerate the revolution of mobile payments for the underserved markets. The mission is to disrupt finance by creating payment experiences for all dimensions, making the largest purchases in life as easy as buying a pair of shoes.
We’re passionate about new technologies and customer experiences. We launched Zaver for Business in 2019 and since then we have gone from 0 to billions of SEK in total transaction volume, being Europe’s probably first size-agnostic BNPL provider and processing cart sizes competitors can’t and achieving acceptance rates others dream about. We are backed by some of the most prominent investors in the region, most of which are either founders of unicorns themselves, or backers of unicorns.
We are looking to grow our legal team with a Legal Counsel who can support our business in a broad range of legal matters.
