Economic incentives, environmental pressures, and regulatory shifts are driving a global move toward the circular economy. Consumers and businesses are already moving away from rigid ownership models in favour of more flexible, affordable access. Yet while big tech has embedded subscriptions in everything from music to software to storage, the $1.5 trillion electronic device market remains deeply underserved.
Until now.
Raylo is the subscription infrastructure for the world's leading electronics brands, powering the circular economy by making devices more accessible, affordable, and flexible for consumers and businesses. The only way customers and manufacturers will make that shift is if it's simple and cost-effective. This is where we come in.
We enable the world’s leading electronics brands to shift from single-use to circular, customer-centric business models. We’re at £70m ARR, profitable, growing fast, with 200,000+ active subscriptions across consumers and small businesses. Customers trust us too, with a 4.5/5 Trustpilot rating from more than 20,000 reviews.
For customers, the experience is simple: subscribe to a device, get support throughout, upgrade when you want, and return it when you’re done. Behind that sits a sophisticated fintech platform powering device subscriptions end to end: credit and fraud decisioning, lifecycle operations, and the financing engine that lets brands offer subscriptions without using their own balance sheet.
No one else has built the full infrastructure to run electronics subscriptions at scale.
Our platform has two sides. Raylo.com marketplace gives consumers and small businesses access to premium tech from the world’s leading electronics brands. Raylo Pay is our embedded product, enabling brands such as PlayStation and LG to launch subscription journeys directly through their own DTC and ecommerce channels.
The impact of our circular model is big. We cut emissions per device by around 50% compared to buy-and-discard. We’re B Corp certified, backed by Macquarie, NatWest and Channel 4 Ventures, and recognised by Tech Nation’s Future Fifty.
AI is changing what small, ambitious teams can build. Companies that embrace it will define the next decade.
Raylo is uniquely placed to benefit. We combine proprietary technology and data with the orchestration of physical assets, operating across credit, fraud, pricing, logistics, refurbishment, resale and customer care. With AI improving every cycle, our moat deepens with scale.
At Raylo, AI is woven into how we work every day. We don’t ration access or hedge our bets. Our people use the best models and tools, and we expect them to do things that weren’t possible a year ago. Processes that used to be good enough are being rebuilt. Teams are replacing spreadsheets with bespoke tooling, and anyone can query our data layer in plain English and get a real answer in seconds.
We give every team their own hackathon: a chance to step back, start with a blank sheet, and ask: if we were starting today, how would we do this?
The more we automate, the more human judgement matters. AI gives people back time, and we expect them to spend it on the things no model can replicate: conversations, trust, craft and team judgement.
We hire to a high bar. You’ll work with people who push you, raise your game and expect you to do the same. We want every person at Raylo to do the best work of their lives, and enjoy doing it.
Be deeply curious – We thrive on innovation through diverse approaches, views, and people.
Walk in your customer’s shoes – To build the best products and make the best decisions for the long term, we must figure out what our customers need, not just what they want.
Focus and execute – We have a big vision, but we believe in nailing the most important problems first.
Be gritty – Only gritty teams succeed. Our individual ownership, passion, and perseverance mean we’re a team through thick and thin.
Raylo's Supply Operations Function owns inventory, operational sourcing and logistics: making sure we have enough inventory to meet the demand plan without operating inefficiently, that it sits with the right 3PL partner at the right time, and that it moves cleanly from our partners to our customers and back again to recommerce.
You won't run warehouses. You will orchestrate several partners (TD SYNNEX, Ingram Micro, THG and Jigsaw24 in the UK, with a US network coming online in H1 2027) to ensure super-fast delivery of devices and delight our customers, as volume scales ~60% year-on-year.
You'll walk into live commercial workstreams across our 3PL network, alongside the bigger structural work of designing the network for where we're going, both in the UK and building the US from scratch.
If you see an ambiguous scaling problem, impose structure on it and deliver, this is a defining seat.
