We raised a $4.9M seed round backed by Flourish Ventures, Visa Ventures, TLcom Capital, Stellar Development Foundation, 4DX Ventures, and Antler. We've also partnered with Tether to expand stablecoin access across the continent. We're licensed in the US, Canada, the EU, and key African markets.

The Associate Product Manager is a junior Product Manager who works closely with the Product Lead to bring Honey Coin's products to life by owning specific features and the execution work behind them.
