🚗 About us

At LIZY, we are reshaping the € 70bn European car leasing business. The traditional car leasing industry is slow, complicated and expensive. At LIZY, we’re making leasing a car as easy as ordering a sweater on Zalando.

LIZY is a well funded startup (>€10m) with off-the-charts revenue growth (>100% YoY) and an amazing team of 30+ A-players. We’re incredibly ambitious and our goal is to become the Revolut of car leasing.

With our weekly planning pace and our no nonsense written culture we focus on the most important tasks while keeping our long term objectives in mind. Every team at LIZY uses the OKR methodology to set quarterly and annual goals and measure corresponding achievements.
