It works in more than 40 countries globally and utilises micro-learning and social technology to enhance employee performance to ensure familiarisation with an imminently-live system is effective. According to its own research, firms that opt for its go-to-market platform experience an 85% boost in employee adoption.
Moven
FinovateEurope 2017 saw US mobile banking venture, Moven, announce its UK launch as it works towards partnerships across the rest of Europe.
Moven started life as a mobile-only challenger bank, but now concentrates on a SaaS solution enabling other FIs, such as New Zealand’s Westpac and TD Bank in Canada, to accelerate their digital transformation initiatives. “This is our first launch in Europe and we could not be happier with how smoothly the process has been,” said Moven CEO and Founder, Brett King. “Going by our quick release of the UK platform, we can’t wait to start working with other bank partners in the UK and across the rest of Europe.

This allows the app to monitor and track spending habits and show users how much, and where, they have been spending that month.

As the company told IBS Journal earlier this year: “Banking remains stuck in the past. Traditional banks rely on 1970s technology and legacy systems that are complex, risky and expensive to modernise. These 20th century monolith systems were squeezed onto smaller screens and dubbed ‘mobile banking’. It simply wasn’t good enough. So Conor decided to build a platform
