Pitch

Women are the single largest underserved group of customers in financial services.

They invest less and use financial products & services at a rate 40% LESS than that of men.

Yet they control up to 80% of household consumer spending. That is $6 trillion dollars in the US alone.

Banks and financial institutions have trouble gaining trust and onboarding more women customers as women rank the financial industry as one they trust the least.


When women have more money, their families and communities are better off and the economy grows.

They rely less on social programs to get by and they have more freedom to leave abusive relationships.

They are less likely to live in poverty and less likely to experience a negative financial impact as a result of divorce.

A new survey puts women's financial health at a 5 year low as reported by Forbes. 59% of women are worried about their finances and 43% actively worry about it daily.

With inflation on the rise, worries about finances have a severe negative impact on women's mental health and enjoyment of life.



A mobile personal finance app that makes managing money, setting budgets and goals easy and offers personal insights for improving financial wellness.


What Makes Us Unique:

Personalized Rewards & Recognition for Achieving Financial Goals

As She Banks members improve their financial wellness score as measured by their FINSTRONG score (a measure of savings, debt and investment), they will receive SHE BANKS POINTS that they can redeem for personalized rewards and special offers like shopping trips, consumer goods, cleaning services, vacations and discounts from the places they shop at the most.


A $700 B Global Market

Studies put the value of the global gap in the use of financial products and services by men versus women at up to $700 Billion dollars globally.

If women invested at the same rate as men, there would be an extra $3 Trillion dollars of assets under management from private individuals today.

There are almost 100 million women between the ages of 20 - 65.

This is a HUGE untapped market.


HOW WE MAKE MONEY

We have a long term revenue growth strategy.

  1. Subscription Fees. Our monthly fee will be modest allowing all women to afford it.

  4. Our own proprietary financial products & services. We will grow by acquisition eventually reaching a scale where will be able to underwrite our own products and services, like affordable life and health insurance products, specially designed for our member community. Business model: SoFi.
