The problem it solves
Consumers often miss lucrative bank bonuses due to the difficulty in finding and comparing offerings from different banks. Existing resources are scattered and not user-friendly, making it hard for users to track their eligibility and application timelines.
How it makes money
Affiliate marketing model, earning commissions for each referral or sign-up generated through the platform.
Skills you need
Web development, digital marketing, content creation, and an understanding of banking regulations and financial products.
The market, and why this works now
Open banking regulations in the U.S. have increased transparency and access to consumer banking data, making it easier to compare bank offers. A targeted approach to first revenue could involve promoting the platform on Reddit communities focused on personal finance, where users actively seek information on bank bonuses. A significant risk includes the potential for high customer acquisition costs, as users may require multiple touchpoints before signing up for a bank account through the platform.
