Moroku’s vision is of a world where everyone is being great with their money. To do that, financial services need to be fun and social. When service is this way, people pay attention, get curious, overcome challenges, grow skills, and go on a journey of mastery.

Characterised by games and social, customer engagement, of all ages and backgrounds, is being redefined. Customers want to have fun, take on challenges, be recognised and share. Moroku’s platform and processes create engaging experiences for service providers that empower customers and help everyone compete. We do this with our proprietary On Ramp methodology that maps the customer journey towards mastery and an innovative, cloud based, application engagement platform, Odyssey, that drives the user experience, getting users to pay attention, build habits and act. 

Over the last year Moroku has achieved several important strategic milestones including:

• development of a gamified equities trading platform for a global bank
• development and launch of a new digital platform for financial advisors
• completing a money management proof of concept for one of the world’s leading Super Fintechs

These key achievements show an exciting future and give us cause to build out the team further as we seeing banks, fintechs and wealth management providers globaly lean in.
