Vara

Vara, founded in 2020 and headquartered in Singapore, is revolutionizing the realm of small and medium enterprise (SME) management with its innovative staff platform, Bukugaji. Focusing on enhancing efficiency by delivering more time, energy, and money back to SMEs and their staff, Vara addresses the cumbersome manual payroll processes prevalent in most SMEs, which often rely on pen and paper.

The problem is clear: traditional methods of managing payroll and employment data are outdated, leading to inefficiencies for employers and limited access for employees. By introducing an all-in-one system of record, Vara’s platform significantly simplifies tasks ranging from attendance tracking to salary tabulation, allowing better access to essential employment data and financial services.

Backed by a $4.80M Seed Round investment in July 2021 from notable investors like FEBE Ventures, Alpha JWC Ventures, RTP Global, and others, Vara is positioned as a promising player in the Internet industry, bringing a much-needed digital transformation to SME staff management.
