Existing solutions were either too complex, too expensive, or lacked key features that users needed. Additionally, managing finances and payments was becoming increasingly important for small businesses and freelancers, who needed a simple and secure way to manage their finances

They also identified a need for accessible and user-friendly financial services that could help people and businesses save and manage their finances effectively.

They identified two primary personas: the first was an individual who needed a secure and reliable way to make payments and transfers, save money, and manage their finances.
