Job Alert: Remote Copywriter Wanted — Cardtonic Is Hiring and the Role Is Open Now

If you can write words that make people stop scrolling, click, and take action — there is a fintech company in Africa looking for exactly you.

Cardtonic, one of Africa's leading platforms for virtual dollar cards, gift card trading, and bill payments, is currently hiring a Copywriter to join their team. This is a remote-friendly role with a company that has millions of active users and a clear, distinct brand voice.
Here is what you need to know.

About the Role

Cardtonic is Africa's leading platform for virtual dollar cards, gift card trading, bill payments, and gadgets, and every caption, push notification, and email is a chance to make someone laugh, think, or take action and they need a Copywriter who can make those words count. 

This is not a generic content mill job. You will be writing for a fast-moving fintech brand with a real audience that engages daily. Your words will appear in push notifications, email campaigns, social captions, newsletters, and in-app messages — all of which directly affect how users feel about and interact with the product.

What You Will Be Doing

The role requires a creative, sharp, and versatile Copywriter who can make Cardtonic's content stand out from social captions and push notifications to emails, newsletters, and in-app messages  with the ability to write a killer caption in the morning, a witty push notification by afternoon, and a compelling email in the evening, all while keeping the tone consistent. 

You will also collaborate with designers and marketing teams to make sure every piece of content aligns with the brand's identity and drives action.

Who They Are Looking For

Cardtonic is looking for someone who knows how to tell stories, connect with people, and make sure every line of text sounds like them — it's about knowing how to tell stories, connect with people, and make sure every line of text sounds like us. 

At entry to mid level, the key qualities they want are creativity, versatility, and the ability to write across formats without losing the brand voice. A strong portfolio even samples you built yourself — matters more than years of experience.

Why This Role Is Worth Pursuing

Working as a copywriter for an active African fintech brand is one of the fastest ways to build a portfolio that actually impresses future clients and employers. Employers care more about your skills, experience, portfolio, and ability to communicate clearly than formal certificates. 

Writing for Cardtonic means your work is live, public, and impactful. That is exactly the kind of evidence that gets you hired or contracted again and again.
