Glyph is a mobile-first application that provides real-time, location-aware alerts telling users which card in their portfolio will earn the most valuable rewards for a purchase. At launch the app supports over 250 credit cards, including the top 18 U.S. issuers representing over 90% of card transactions, and is available in the iTunes App Store. Glyph’s alerts use geolocation and portfolio analysis to recommend cards and quantify how much value a user may be leaving on the table. The app does not require users to provide card account credentials; it only needs a list of card types in the wallet to make recommendations. The company plans to expand into card account management features (balances, due dates) and to monetize via optional premium features and card recommendations. Glyph has a partnership with Discover and says it is seeking additional partnerships; the team is six people (about half full-time) and is based in Detroit.
