The Batik employee benefits marketplace was also introduced by Tartan.

Through a network of partners, the platform offers advantages for financial, physical, and emotional wellness.

It focuses on assisting fintech lenders and providers through Batik to develop a number of products, including earned wage access (EWA), salary-linked loans, credit card limit management, and emergency cash, and deliver them to the workforce directly through their employers.

Tartan’s CEO and co-founder, Pramey Jain said, “As more and more ambitious enterprises choose the best tools to enable them to develop and launch their goods for the workforce, one of the major pillars of the economy, over the last year, the quick adoption of our product has exceeded our expectations.”
