Companies shouldn't have to struggle to buy things.

They should be able to empower their employees, have control over what they spend on, and save as much time and money as possible.

Since 2020, Pliant has been on a mission to enable organizations to do just that.

With its app-based solution, Pliant gives companies the ability to issue physical and digital credit cards, track spends, and seamlessly integrate all of this data to an entire ecosystem of other finance and accounting tools.

Moreover, with a program called Pliant Earth, companies gain an easy means to combat climate change by allowing them to offset their CO2 emissions automatically through certified providers.

Pliant is on a path of growing quickly.

With our expansion into 9 international markets, we believe that people, passion, and diversity are the key ingredients to our future success.

Our growing team of 100+ Plianteers come from 25 nationalities and work remotely or in a hybrid environment from our headquarters in the heart of Berlin.

And we're looking for more talented and committed people to join us on our journey
