Sequin in 2020: Let’s Talk Credit.
Is it a credit card’s job to teach you about credit? At Sequin, we believe it is.
Over the past few months, our team has been heads down, talking to women about their experiences with credit. We asked: what do you want to see from a credit card designed for you?
What we heard was a strong desire to understand how credit works. And not in the oversimplified way that women are frequently spoken to about finances. Women want context, nuance, and transparency. And they want it from credible and relatable experts — from women like them.
Today, I’m proud to announce the launch of Sequin’s credit knowledge platform.
Women’s relationship with credit is complex and steeped in societal inequities. From credit underwriting that reflects the gender wage gap, to a society that doesn’t educate women about credit — Sequin’s mission to give women the credit (and knowhow) we deserve is more critical than ever.
Here are a few modules I’m personally most excited about:
- Sequin’s credit myth-busting quiz
- Credit pro-tips, consider this your crash course in credit knowhow
- Articles on transforming financial services to be more equitable for women
Check out Sequin’s credit knowledge platform here (quick preview below) and let us know how else we can help. Because women deserve more credit. Seriously.
Oh, and, join the Sequin credit card waitlist to be the first to know when the Sequin credit card is ready for you.
Sincerely,
Vrinda Gupta

A very special thanks to Molly Zeins for her leadership in creating this robust learning curriculum that will elevate women’s understanding of credit, its importance in our daily lives, and tactics to hold the system accountable. I loved the process of co-creating this with you.
