Hi there!

At Sprinque, we are building the B2B payments platform to enable frictionless B2B trade. Through a single, seamless integration with Sprinque, marketplaces and merchants can easily offer business buyers convenient and flexible payment options to pay for their purchases while eliminating all risk of the transaction for the merchant, allowing them to safely expand across Europe and beyond.

Sprinque was founded at the beginning of 2021 in Amsterdam by Manoj Tutika (CTO), Mark Holleman (CPO), and Juan Espinosa (CEO). This international founding team brings together an exciting mix of technical, domain and commercial expertise. We take pride in our diversity and highly value diverse ways of thinking and problem-solving. What ties us together is our global ambition to make an impact, to always continue learning, and to build something our customers love and value deeply. Following our successful pre-seed fundraise, we are expanding the team, looking for teammates who love to question the status quo, seek out tough challenges, and are comfortable with the uncomfortable.
