Who Are We?

Thndr was founded with a powerful vision: to democratize investing in the Middle East and North Africa by putting financial power in the pockets of everyday people. Through smart technology and human-centered design, we're giving anyone with a smartphone easy access to preserve and grow their wealth while promoting local investment opportunities that propel our regional economies.

Before Thndr, only a very small percentage of people had access to investing due to:

High barriers to entry - minimum account balances, brick-and-mortar onboarding, and low financial literacy
Irrelevant experiences - platforms designed for traders and financial experts, alienating the majority
Fragmented offerings - investment products scattered across multiple platforms
Limited information accessibility - lack of organized, accessible information for retail investors

Our impact has been swift and significant:

3 million app downloads
$8.8 billion in annualized traded value
#1 platform in terms of traded value (30% of market orders & 11% of retail traded value)
84% of our users are investing for the first time
65% of our users come from outside capital cities, previously underserved by financial institutions

We're building the connectivity and information gateway that links investors with a wide range of investments, focusing on self-directed investing and local products that empower individuals to build wealth confidently and intelligently.

While we're proud of our achievements, we're just getting started. Over the coming years, we're transitioning Thndr from an exciting startup to a consistently growing business that will remain strong, competitive, and expanding.

Joining Thndr means becoming part of a mission that requires passion, bold risks, and hard work—all focused on giving everyone an equal opportunity to generate and grow their wealth.

At Thndr, we’re looking for people invigorated by our mission, not just those who simply check off all the boxes. We’re looking for people that are hungry to become agents of change and that understand the huge responsibility associated with dealing with people’s money.
