Our Story

It started with a lost wallet.

In 2018, our founder Alex lost his wallet in Tokyo. Freezing his card took 45 minutes on hold with his bank. He realized banking hadn't changed in 50 years.

Nova was born to solve that problem. We built a bank from scratch—one that lives on your phone, reacts instantly, and helps you live better.
