Ekko

Ekko is a Hanoi-based fintech company founded in 2022 that provides financial wellbeing services for employees through their employers in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. Its main service is earned wage access, which lets workers withdraw part of the wages they have already earned before payday through the Ekko mobile app. The app also includes gamified financial education courses and tools for setting savings goals and tracking spending. Employers receive an HR portal and can run financial workshops, and they can choose to pay the service fees so employees use it at no cost.
