AMBER was founded by Aleksandar Svetski, an Australian FinTech entrepreneur.

The company is part of a digital revolution which aims to empower people to take control and protect their finances via micro-investing.

It is one of the only Crypto products to raise capital without an ICO, simply because Aleksandar feels ‘a project like AMBER does not need a “Blockchain” or “Token” to function.”

AMBER uses leftover change from its users everyday purchases and invests that money into cryptocurrency.

The idea for AMBER came about when co-founders, Aleksandar Svetski and Chantelle De La Rey, were discussing how hard it was to invest in the cryptocurrency market.

The AMBER team is dedicated to creating simple ways to access the cryptocurrency market for everyday investors.

AMBER is constructed by the technology advancements made by Fabric, another project which Aleksandar is involved with.

Which is a financial data platform that provides the foundation layer which AMBER sits upon.
