How to Know if a Fintech App Is Safe
How to know if a fintech app is safe: the quick checks to confirm an app handling your money is properly licensed and regulated before you trust it.
Transkripcija
How do you know if a fintech app is safe? If an app is asking to hold, send or receive money, it should either be licensed and regulated or work with a regulated financial institution.
But don't just take the app's word for it. Go directly to the regulator's official website and confirm that the licence is real.
You should also make sure you are using the official app or website, and never share passwords or verification codes with anyone.
A professional-looking app is not always enough. Remember to always verify who it is and make sure that's the real app.

Apie šį epizodą
Any app that holds, sends or receives money on your behalf should be licensed and regulated, or working with a regulated financial institution behind the scenes. A polished interface alone doesn't prove that — the app's own claims aren't enough to go on.
The reliable way to check is to go directly to the regulator's official website and confirm the licence is real, rather than trusting a badge or claim inside the app itself. It's also worth confirming you're using the official app or website, since convincing copies exist, and never sharing passwords or verification codes with anyone.
Demivolt operates as a licensed, regulated EMI, so that verification step holds up to scrutiny — the same standard this episode encourages users to check for in any fintech app they trust with their money.
