Bluevine builds financial software for U.S. small businesses and startups. Owners can use one dashboard to manage checking accounts, pay vendors, send invoices, accept card payments and track cash flow. They can also issue employee debit cards with spending limits and give accountants access to help reconcile transactions. Coastal Community Bank provides banking services, and Celtic Bank issues the business line of credit that Bluevine services. Eligible owners of U.S.-registered businesses can open an account online from select countries, including India.
Bluevine’s teams work on problems with a direct effect on small business owners, from shortening the wait for a credit decision to letting a merchant accept a card payment by phone. The platform served about 175,000 active small business customers as of June 2026. Engineers have used Python and PostgreSQL to speed up risk assessments. In Bengaluru, Bluevine has advertised hybrid engineering roles with health and life insurance, mental health support and professional development benefits.
