Shahrukh Arif

Chief Product Officer
The Astra team is solution oriented and took the time to understand Till’s business model, advanced payment architecture and, most importantly, the unique needs of our parent and family customers. In fintech, vendors often seem unwilling to be creative to support partner needs. Astra stands out from the rest.
