ING's money management platform Yolt expands to France and Italy
04 Giugno 2018 - 08:00AM
ING announced today that it's expanding its money
management platform Yolt to France and Italy. Yolt is ING's smart
money app in the UK that helps users to actively manage their
personal finances with a one-stop overview of their accounts with
the majority of UK banks and other features. Yolt was launched in
the UK in June 2017 and has already attracted 300,000 registered
users there. ING's plans to rollout Yolt in France and Italy is
part of its ambition to build a pan-European money platform.
Frank Jan Risseeuw, CEO of Yolt: "I'm really proud
to see the rapid growth of our app in the UK and I'm probably even
more excited about the expansion to more countries, as we announced
today. Every day, we are doing our utmost to offer our users the
best possible experience and I think that's what makes the
difference in this digital landscape. The fast growth of the number
of users shows a digital platform such as Yolt can truly change the
banking landscape."
Benoit Legrand, Chief Innovation Officer of ING
Group commented: "This is an important milestone for Yolt, as this
platform is now being taken to multiple countries. Inventing and
launching an innovation is one thing, but taking it to the next
level is another. It shows once again our proven ability to disrupt
banking by growing fintechs our own, next to innovating by
partnering with more than 150 fintechs. Yolt is truly creating a
differentiating experience and is a great example of how ING is
executing on its strategy to transform the bank to become the go-to
platform for financial needs."
