What Is a Mini-App?

A mini-app is a lightweight application that runs natively within the Klutch platform. It looks and feels like your own product—but it’s built on top of Klutch’s credit and payments infrastructure. That means you can create financial tools, rewards programs, budgeting experiences, or entirely new credit features without needing to issue a card or navigate the banking stack.

Whether you're a fintech builder, product team, or independent developer, mini-apps give you the power to launch fast and scale without friction.

Why Build on Klutch?

1. Reach a Financially Active User Base

Your mini-app lives inside Klutch—where users already manage their spending, track financial insights, and make real purchases every day. You're not starting from zero. You’re building inside an ecosystem designed for engagement.

2. Skip the Heavy Lifting

Launching a financial product from scratch often requires:

• Finding a card issuer
• Negotiating with a bank
• Setting up compliance programs
• Managing fraud and KYC
• Handling user onboarding and transaction processing

With Klutch, that’s already done. You plug in your idea, and we handle the rest, card integration, user auth, transaction data, and secure infrastructure.

3. Build Quickly With Our Help

Most partners get their first version live in just a few weeks. Our team provides:

• Design and UX collaboration
• API documentation and code samples
• Help with integration and testing
• Co-marketing support when you launch

We act as your technical partner, helping you bring your product to life and get it in front of users—fast.

Generate Revenue from Day One

Mini-apps aren’t just for engagement—they’re a new revenue stream. You can:

• Charge users directly (one-time or recurring)
• Offer premium features inside the app
• Use performance-based pricing
• Monetize through referrals, upgrades, or affiliate models

Klutch  can help you design a monetization model that works. Whether you’re a solo developer or an established company, mini-apps can become a real business.

What Can You Build?

Here are just a few ideas partners have explored:

• Smart Savings Goals: A mini-app that rounds up purchases and puts the difference toward a goal
• Subscription Manager: Help users cancel or renegotiate recurring charges
• Parental Controls: Add features on top of our child allowance tools
• Financial Coaching: Deliver personalized advice based on spending behavior
• Gamified Spending: Reward users for staying under budget or hitting savings targets

If it can add value to a credit card experience, it can probably be a mini-app.

Real Infrastructure. No Banking License Needed.

With Klutch, you’re building on top of a real credit card stack:

• Visa credit rails
• Live transaction data
• User identity and account management
• Secure cloud infrastructure

You don’t need to be a fintech company to act like one.
