About Khazna

Khazna was founded in 2019 with a mission to improve the financial well-being of the underbanked, who have little access to formal financial services by providing access to convenient, effective, and secure smartphone-based financial services. Khazna has received the Central Bank of Egypt's first prepaid card license and aims to become the go-to specialized bank for underbanked mid-to-low-income consumers across the Middle East. In the next phase of its journey, Khazna is looking to continue scaling up its operations in Egypt and to launch its operations in Saudi Arabia. We are consistently on the lookout for rock stars to help us solve for financial inclusion.
