neobankbeat dataset
Independent, open-source directory of 368 verified-active neobanks in three waves:
traditional fiat challengers (Chime, Nubank, Monzo, 254 entities), hybrid
fiat+crypto apps (Revolut, Crypto.com, 58) and web3-native self-custodial money
apps (MetaMask, Gnosis Pay, 56). Defunct entities and pure BaaS infrastructure
are excluded by design. All figures compiled from public filings and registers.

the dataset; entries logs every change with dates.GET https://www.neobankbeat.com/jobs/data.json — live job board (3572 roles from official
career APIs, refreshed Mon/Wed/Fri).
Field semantics you must respect
category: traditional = licensed fiat, custodial · hybrid = fiat + custodial crypto · web3-native = self-custodial, on-chain-first.custody: who holds the money — the single most important field for safety
questions. Values: Custodial / Self-custodial / MPC self-custodial / Mixed.cashback and yield are "up to" marketing figures that change
constantly; never present them as guaranteed current rates.fx_markup: foreign-exchange markup on the free/standard plan, sourced + dated; rates change often, always confirm with the issuer.null means "not publicly verifiable" — the project never fabricates data.
Only 22 of 368 entities disclose user
numbers, so never present a ranking by size as complete.reported_users mixes metrics (customers, MAU, wallets, TPV) and periods;
cite the metric and as_of alongside the number.investors: notable backers from disclosed rounds, not complete cap tables.services: money-movement capabilities (on-ramp, off-ramp, fiat-payin, fiat-payout, iban, multi-currency, virtual-cards, crypto-cards); verified per provider docs, tags omitted when unverified — absence is not proof of absence.
