Our journey so far :

Jupiter was founded in 2019 by Jitendra Gupta.

Best known as Citrus Pay's founder, Jiten found himself wondering why personal finance experiences were not customer-centric when everything else like food ordering and entertainment were.

That's how our journey began in 2019, with a simple, powerful idea : to create a modern, customer-centric experience that empowers individuals when it comes to their money.

From our humble beginnings, we've strived relentlessly to make managing money easier.

In 2021 when we launched we had a waitlist with over 100,000 people eager to experience the world of Jupiter and within 10 months we crossed 1 million users.

Today, we have 2.7 million + happy users on Jupiter.

Our Insights feature today tells how much and where you've been spending automatically, even on your other savings accounts! Our Edge CSB Bank RuPay credit card is getting a lot of love for it's head-turning transparent design, not to mention it being a rewarding experience.

Our No-Penalty SIP and Daily SIP at Rs 10/has helped scale our investments business and we have over 100,000 users investing on our platform to fulfill their money aspirations.

We've embraced cutting-edge technology, harnessed the power of data analytics, and assembled a diverse team of creative thinkers and industry experts who share our vision for a more accessible, transparent, and inclusive financial ecosystem.
