We work not just as a Business, but as a Community. Here are the three major values that we nurture in our work and UpStack Community:

PEOPLE

Our community and we value people over profits and processes.

TRUST

We’ll always communicate openly and honestly and treat everyone fairly and with trust.

VALUE

We never compromise the value of our service for our community and customers over processes.

UpStack was founded back in 2010 by Yossi Mlynsky, and the HQ is located in New York, USA. It started as a bootstrapped, scrappy startup that grew with quite a lot of growth over the past few years. To be more precise, we grew 68% in 2020 and 100% in 2021.

We enable clients and developers to build the best products of their lives and facilitate this with a vetted marketplace of talent, white glove service, rapid matching, and simple payments. And we love what we do!
