Rewards card for gamers

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building a rewards card tailored for gamers that lets them earn benefits aligned with their gaming habits. Our product tracks relevant spend and gives gamers points or perks that feel relevant and valuable to their lifestyle. It's designed to serve gamers in a way traditional credit or rewards programs don't.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA and the company would be based here and remote after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we are based because it's the center of tech and fintech innovation, and we want to be close to the partners, networks, and potential investors YC connects us to.

No. Y Combinator keeps submitted applications private. This is a reconstruction: the real YC form questions, answered from Mythia's public data (launch notes, founder backgrounds, product description). It shows how a company like Mythia would present itself to YC, not the text they submitted.
