**What’s the story?**

In India, there are more than 453+ million migrants. Less than 2% of this cohort uses mobile payments to send money home. While penetration of UPI and digital banking hit the ceiling, this invisible workforce that powers most of Bharat is still stuck in a cash economy and remains underbanked. **branchX is India's first neobank enabling empathetic banking for migrant communities.** Building banking that is meaningfully accessible to every aspiring Indian goes beyond the 9-5 bustle. If you are someone who derives fulfilment from purpose-led work with the ability to experiment, innovate, fail and iterate, branchX is the playground for you.

‘Empathy’ as a term has become a buzzword. At branchX, we are constantly reimagining what empathy means in action.

Products that are meaningfully accessed by the underserved and will directly boost India’s economy in the long term. If indulging in blue-sky thinking, innovating, and iterating to create grassroots impact makes you tickle.
