- Continuously gather feedback and evolve the product post-launch.
Requirements:
1. Industry Experience:
- 3+ years in product management in eCommerce, fintech, or gaming.

- Familiarity with Web3 collectibles, loyalty mechanics, or gamified digital assets.
- Regional market experience in Southeast Asia or familiarity with global credit/debit card structures.
Other Requirements:
