Sunlightの事業内容

Sunlight is an API to change the card-on-file with apps and subscription services. Fintechs use Sunlight to automatically make their cards top-of-wallet as soon as they're issued. Merchants, service providers and subscriptions-based businesses everywhere now offer their customers the ability to save a debit/credit card on file, so they can pay their bills on time, buy in one click, or earn rewards. In 2021, 79% of consumers worldwide reported already having at least one payment card saved with a service or being open to doing so. In recent years, card-issuing as-a-service has become mainstream: any company can now start their own card business in a matter of weeks. Last year, the number of new payment cards issued was at an all-time high. For users, however, switching banks or opening a new card now comes with an additional hurdle: they need to update their payment info across the internet. On the other side of that equation, card issuers have no visibility or control over the card-on-file updating process, and as a result struggle to get their new users to switch their spend from their old card to the new one, leading to low conversion rates and missed revenue opportunities. Until Sunlight. With our universal get-your-card-on-file API, FIs can now offer their users, at any point in their journey, a quick and easy way to update their debit/credit card info everywhere they shop or pay online, without ever leaving their Apps. The Sunlight API works on every platform that has a card-on-file option (think Uber, Amazon, Netflix, DoorDash, Starbucks and so many more…), is as seamless as a Plaid connection, and always gets the card number and CVV code right on the first try!

Company

Company name

Sunlight

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

The Universal Card-On-File API

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

We built an API that lets financial institutions update their users' card-on-file information automatically across merchant apps and subscription services. When a card is issued or refreshed, Sunlight updates it everywhere the user has saved their card, without them needing to go to each app to change it.

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

We are based in New York, NY, and Tel Aviv-Yafo, Tel Aviv District, Israel.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're split between the US and Israel because that's where our founding team lives and works. Both locations have strong fintech ecosystems, which helps us build and sell Sunlight.

よくある質問

Sunlightの実際のYCアプリケーションですか？

いいえ。Y Combinatorは提出されたアプリケーションを非公開にしています。これは再構築されたものです。実際のYCフォームの質問に、Sunlightの公開データ（ローンチノート、創業者経歴、製品説明）から回答しています。Sunlightのような会社がYCにどのようにアピールするかを示しており、彼らが提出したテキストではありません。
