NEOBANK MAIN CHALLENGES

Neobanks are usually specialize in payment transfers

Lack of services and benefits –i.e. salary in advance, e-wallet, etc.-

Neobanks rely on prepaid card as the only payment means

Great for the US market. Not applicable in other regions -lack of POS penetration-

Сompile with regulations

Software development companies may develop a nice look and feel, but understanding of banking regulations is a must.

Total dependence on access to mobile line connectivity

Mobile phone signal sometimes is poor outside large cities.

Integration with the ”real world”

The world is not “mobile”, requires integration with Non Banking Correspondent networks to solve the lack of point of contact with customers
