Secure and compliant banking and digital cash app, for a digitally evolving world
PORTLAND, OR, UNITED STATES, April 2, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — BankShift by ShiftSense, Inc. took a new Fintech product from idea to reality in less than six months. Diligence and the mentality of a warrior, led Rob Thacher, ShiftSense CEO, and his team to develop a new way of bridging the gap between financial institutions and consumers. In an intense 6-month sprint, BankShift was born.
When the world shut-down last spring, and our lives went virtual, consumers were shut off from so many daily interactions. Many banks have been able to leverage their existing technology, while smaller banks and credit unions began seeking quick-to-market tools for filling these needs.
It was the perfect time for Thacher and his team to brainstorm a secure and compliant solution to the disparate account experience. Thacher reflects on his team’s achievements:
The BankShift team faced the challenges any fintech startup would, regulations, compliance, security, and how to bridge the gap between an online experience and real people. Connecting accounts was the first step. The team developed APIs and security protocols to link accounts. With different financial institutions now connected on the BankShift platform, how could the app expand beyond the basics of linking existing online accounts?
That’s where partnerships come into play. With BankShift, even smaller banks and credit unions can gain brand prominence, product advertising, co-marketing, and no fee payments or transfers for their customers. The app offers a secure and compliant service for the small financial players to stay competitive and lower customer attrition, while the partnership connects them to new and existing customers.
So, there’s the consumer aspect, the small financial institution aspect, and then the whole Fintech thing. Building a secure, robust financial management platform takes years for banks and investment companies. With the BankShift team’s experience trudging through corporate red-tape, they knew what to do to move quickly without compromising the user experience or security. Through deep security protocols, government identification and biometrics, consumers safely transact with real people and vetted partners through the BankShift app.
BankShift wasn’t born overnight, but in the world of fintech, it might as well have been. Since launching earlier this year, BankShift has demonstrated the app offers a direct line to consumers’ multiple financial accounts and banking relationships. The development doesn’t stop here. Thacher and his team are working to expand offerings for trading stocks and cryptocurrencies.
