If you’ve found yourself in the depths of the social media world recently, there’s a high chance you’ve stumbled across ‘TikTok’. And if you don’t know what TikTok is, then there’s a good chance you’ve been living under a rock (in the nicest way possible 😋). To keep it short and sweet, TikTok is an app that allows users to create & share short-form videos. And thanks to COVID-19, it’s now one of the most downloaded social media platforms as of 2023, with over 1.5 billion users. 

Since then, TikTok has evolved from viral dance videos to brokering million-dollar deals resulting in a major impact on business success. Some would say we’re a little late to jump on the bandwagon (they're not wrong 🙃), but we won't let that stop us from ruling out the opportunity completely.  

So…what took us so long? Believe it or not, we weren’t sure if this was a platform we needed to be on. TikTok is ground-breaking in many ways and has created a new space for brands to connect with an audience. However, this is a platform run by users, not brands. The highly engaging brand content that resonates with the TikTok audience tends to push the boundaries, which is a bit of a risky move coming from a fintech. 

The turning point 

We recognised that the TikTok audience demands authenticity. We also understand that there’s a certain stigma around fintech’s. But we’re on a mission to humanise our brand and leverage TikTok to connect with new and existing audiences in a way that showcases our personality – while having some fun! Gone are the days when brands have one strategy across the board, we’re in an era of forming a real connection and keeping the people entertained!  

So, if you stuck around this long, you may as well be one of the first to follow us.
