About Tala
At Tala, we're applying advanced technology and human creativity to solve what legacy institutions can't or won't. We are a global financial infrastructure company on a mission to unleash the economic power of the global majority, recognizing that today's financial infrastructure doesn't work for most of the world's population.

Our pioneering work and proven impact have earned us consistent recognition, including being named to:
CNBC's Disruptor 50 for five years. CNBC's World's Top Fintech Companies for two consecutive years. Forbes' Fintech 50 list for nine consecutive years.
Visionary investors, persuaded by the economic power of the global majority, have committed half a billion dollars in equity and debt to Tala's success.
Given the global nature of our team, we operate on a remote-first approach with office hubs in Santa Monica, CA (HQ); Nairobi, Kenya; Mexico City, Mexico; Manila, the Philippines; and Bangalore, India.
Most Talazens join us because they connect with our mission. If you are energized by the impact you can make at Tala, we'd love to hear from you
