What it is
A WhatsApp community for people who work in fintech, banking, payments, and the pipes underneath. Canadian roots. Anyone curious is welcome.
Who's in it
800+ practitioners. Founders, PMs, engineers, bank execs, regulators, investors, consultants. From ATB Financial and Brim to Alpaca and Truly Financial. From Payments Canada and Interac to early-stage builders nobody's heard of yet.
What happens in there
Real conversations about what's actually happening. Job moves. Product launches. Policy shifts. The occasional meme. No pitches. No spam. Chatham House Rule.
The one rule
Be excellent to one another. That's it. Don't sell. Don't spam. Contribute or lurk. Both are fine.
Who runs it
A group of people. That's it. Press, partnerships, or anything else?
Ask in the group. That's the front door.
How it grows
Word of mouth. One person invites another. If you're in, bring one person you'd want in the same room as you.
That's the whole readme.
