We're realising the token economy by establishing it in daily life. And we've started with money.

What We believe

At TokenCard we believe in a new era for financial services. One with no need for centralised control by institutions and middlemen, where people have complete independence, choice and control of their assets. One which takes the user-focused design of the challenger banks and couples it with user-focused technology only possible through the power of the blockchain, where transparency and decentralisation regulate our actions unlike ever before.

What We’re starting with

We’re building a self-sovereign financial platform with a suite of products and services powered by decentralisation that give you 100% control of your assets - we will never touch or hold them ourselves.

Our Story So Far

Mel Gelderman, CEO and co-founder of TokenCard has always been passionate about transformative technology. Building an algae-biofuel business (Algae-Planet) early on, he would later leave university to pursue his blockchain vision in South-East Asia. He first encountered Ethereum in 2014 and has been raving about it ever since, obsessed with its potential to create a tokenised world. This first led to him to join a Taiwanese blockchain company (Digital Treasury Corporation) as a consultant, focused on integrating smart contracts into geothermal power stations.

After meeting Vitalik in Taiwan, Mel and David Hoggard decided to pursue their own vision and co-founded TokenCard. They launched to the world shortly after Devcon 2 in Shanghai. In early 2017 they raised $17m in one of the first decentralised crowd sales.

Our Marketing team is led by Anna Mostyn Williams. Anna has over 10 years experience overseeing the development, launch and marketing of digital & physical products, working with world-leading brands such as Xbox, Jagex (on the iconic Runescape franchise) and The Discovery Channel. Prior to joining TokenCard she co-founded the FinTech company Curve. She has an MBA from INSEAD.

Our Engineering team is led by visionary CTO Mischa Tuffield, who deftly guides our technical vision and roadmap. He holds a PhD from the University of Southampton, an AI Degree from Edinburgh University, has worked with Sir Tim Berners-Lee at two startups, taken two through to exit. He has worked on various W3C protocols and specifications.

We’ve recently joined the FCA’s Sandbox (Cohort 4),
