Motivations
• Everyday money management needs are simple:– Deposit salaries (direct deposit) and tips (cash)– Stay on top of available money easily and accurately– Spend responsibly with card, cash and the occasional check
• Nobody is providing “Millenials” (those born after 1980) with simple, transparent and fair everyday banking– “Web 2.0” Mint.com, Wesabee, Yodlee,.. are really nice front-
ends on top of legacy services– Banks are mostly busy inventing ways around the Card ACT
• This can be done at low cost by being lean and operating as an online pure-play
