Company Overview

Acre is on a mission to make every home more affordable and rewarding. Led by a world class team of repeat founders and fintech operators from Uber, Amex, Capital One, Alloy, Goldman Sachs, Zillow, LendingTree, and Spotify, they are creating the mortgage rewards category. Their first product offers credit-card style rewards for the $1.25T in annual mortgage payments in the US that currently receive zero value.

By controlling the flow of funds for the largest asset, they plan to revolutionize every financial product around buying and paying for a home. Their platform will offer real rewards across products (HELOC, refinancings, insurance, etc) while removing the middlemen who drive up the cost of home ownership.

They are backed by some of the best investors in the world and are looking for world class talent to join their team.
