Popcash
Popcash is an app designed to support those in or at risk of problem debt to manage their finances.
The result of an in-depth research project into financial resilience, undertaken with Lewes District and Eastbourne Borough Councils, the brief was to design an app which would enable Credit Unions to compete with Wonga and other payday lenders in the mobile market. After working with credit unions across the country, we adapted the brief into designing a money management solution which would encourage good financial behaviour and greater clarity of personal finances.
Popcash puts you in control of your money, helping you stop late payments, overspending and unwanted charges.
- Knows when you are behind on payments, and points you toward help that’s available
- Pulls together all your essential payments into one place
- Shows your available balance after bills have been paid
- Has information about responsible loan options
- Allows you to track your loan progress, showing you when you’ll be free of debt
- Notifications to your mobile by text or by email - never miss a payment again
Popcash currently exists as a functioning prototype, and will be brought to alpha with investing partners in the near future.
