“Taking control of finances at a young age is crucial in establishing confidence when it comes to personal finances,” said Jose Duarte, co-founder and CMO of Kora. “Although digital assets like cryptocurrency are becoming popularized, the need for financial competency in traditional finance is much more pressing. The recent crypto crash has reminded young people that before you moonshot, you must first have a solid grounding in financial education.”
This 100,000 users feat comes on the heels of Kora’s recent launch of the Kora Rewards Program, a partnership with Cardlytics, that allows users to get cash back rewards of up to 10% when they shop with the KoraCard.
