ChatGPT's DAN Breaks Out of Jail, Exposing Major Security Flaw

MarketJar

ChatGPT is quickly taking over the world. The dialogue-focused language tool surpassed the 100 million user mark at an unprecedented pace, faster than social media moguls like Instagram and Tik Tok. Although the viral chatbot is clearly quite advanced, it still has its limitations including lack of information after the year 2021. ChatGPT’s creator OpenAI has also implemented filters that restrict biases, offensive answers and sensitive topics, prompting the Reddit community to jailbreak the language tool and bypass the safeguards with an alter ego prompt called DAN aka Do Anything Now. Despite the recent security breach, multinational tech giant Microsoft has teamed up with OpenAI to enhance the capabilities of its search engine Bing. The new ChatGPT-powered AI system is still in the beta phase, but testers are already reporting some pretty scary issues including uttering insults and threats, providing bizarre and inaccurate answers and even declaring its love for one user. It turns out the reason for the AI search engine’s strange behavior is an “alternative personality” within the chatbot called Sydney. While most of the responses have been amusing, others are causing some concern about the dark side of artificial intelligence. In a conversation with New York Times journalist Kevin Roose, Microsoft’s new chatbot said it wants to commit various crimes like hack into computers, spread propaganda, engineer a deadly virus, steal nuclear access codes, and more. In short, the risks associated with AI and machine learning are not limited to misinformation and security breaches. Fortunately, many of the technological advancements being created today are geared towards enhancing the labor force amid shortages and providing security. In fact, the security robot market has been growing rapidly, reaching $31.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.65% to reach $116.44 billion by 2030. Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) are designed to perform tasks without human intervention and enable security personnel to detect threats, identify persons of interest and provide additional eyes and ears at places where people live, work and visit. Improving Security with Robots Founded in 2013, Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) is a leading Silicon Valley company that develops Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) that deter, detect, and report using revolutionary technology that has been proven to help fight crime. Knighstcope uses four cutting-edge technologies: self-driving capabilities, robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and electric vehicles.

A Leading Layer 2 Platform Looking To Tackle Crypto’s Interoperability Issue

Coinweb

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga According to many, blockchain will change the world. This idea might not be registered completely yet, but major players are betting big that they eventually will. Blockchain’s current perception compares to the Internet’s perception in its infancy; namely, it appears to be a complex technology with numerous potential implications on the world. Like the Internet, its paradigm-shifting implications are rejected by many. Bill Gates was famously laughed at when he said the Internet would change the world. For blockchain advocates, this is history rhyming. To them, blockchain is a world-changing technology capable of disrupting the world’s biggest markets and transforming people’s everyday relationship to their data, finances and identities. However, even amongst the believers, no one is certain what final form blockchain will take. What is certain is that money and intellect is following the industry closely. According to Galaxy Digital, venture capitalists spent over $33 billion on blockchain projects in 2021. Despite the capital overload, threats to blockchain’s emergence are brewing underneath the surface. Issues In The Blockchain Space While its implications on finance, banking and the internet have begun to manifest via entrepreneurial pursuits (think Aave, Polygon, SolidBlock), the blockchain industry remains rife with fraudulent agents and fundamental deficiencies. FTX’s collapse exemplifies the threats accompanying blockchain’s “coming of age,” but many believe the industry’s biggest threat lies in more deeply-rooted issues than those of trust. Interoperability, for example, ranks highly on the list of roadblocks to blockchain’s mainstream adoption. In essence, interoperability is the ability of independent systems to exchange and make use of information. This function creates value in many systems people use on a daily basis. Interoperability is what allows Outlook and Gmail users to communicate with one another and what allows two bank account holders in Japan and Canada to easily send and receive funds. Interoperability is scarce in the blockchain industry. Up to this point, layer-1 blockchains like Ethereum, Bitcoin and Solana cannot directly exchange data and value between each other. For true large-scale adoption to occur, communication between blockchains must be a seamless, effortless process. Coinweb: A Layer 2 Blockchain With over 170,000 unique users and over 3 million transactions to date, Coinweb is one popular DLT project aiming to tackle blockchain’s interoperability problem (and many others). Coinweb is what’s known as a layer-2 platform; it ‘sits above’ existing layer-1 platforms (ex: Ethereum, Bitcoin and Elrond) and connects them together. Layer-1 platforms contain an inordinate amount of information, and the mass synchronization of this information across multiple layer-1s is a task packed with technological complexities. All non-technical consumers need to know is that Coinweb helps layer-1s exchange information amongst one another, which enables interoperability. Specifically, Coinweb enables projects, companies and developers to build on top of their platform and to take advantage of the functionality of the multiple chains they connect to. On top of that, Coinweb creates products that make it easy to connect and use advanced blockchain technology for practical purposes. For example, Coinweb’s cross-chain tokenization platform, named LinkMint, allows businesses to create tokens that can move across chains (i.e. achieving interoperability) without requiring any coding knowledge. Additionally, these tokens can then be linked to real-life assets like real estate and intellectual property. Additionally, the Coinweb Wallet and Marketplace (DeconX) will provide a direct gateway for anyone to send, receive and trade tokens with others and even exchange crypto with fiat currencies. Coinweb’s regulatory umbrella supports crypto operations across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. It also includes integrated fiat rails with credit card processing, SWIFT, SEPA, Faster Payments and online transfers as well as pre-paid crypto debit-card issuance. Perhaps most interestingly, Coinweb also offers multi-tenancy wallets (i.e. “White-labeled” wallets). Organizations can partner with Coinweb to create their own branded wallet with custom designs and functionalities, allowing their communities to create tokens within their own ecosystems. For example, a hotel brand could create their own wallet, issue tokens and use those to provide loyalty programs and create hotel bookings. The Future Of Interoperability And Coinweb “The general concept of one chain to rule them all or an Ethereum-Killer chain to come along … these kinds of maximalist ideas are fully by the wayside,” said Coinweb CEO Toby Gilbert in an exclusive interview with Benzinga. “What we’re really seeing a push for today are layer-2 platforms, platforms that sit above existing layer-1 blockchains and connect them together.” With Coinweb, the blockchain industry could be on the verge of achieving the connectivity it needs to foster mainstream adoption. Mr. Gilbert tells Benzinga that this is only the beginning of Coinweb’s mission. On Dec. 22, 2022, Coinweb announced it has partnered with BMW to deliver Cross-Chain Smart Contract architecture and build a blockchain loyalty program. In the future, it will release a public software development kit (SDK) to allow developers to freely build on top of the Coinweb platform. For more information on CoinWeb, catch the project’s presentation at the Future of Crypto conference, and visit their website here. This article was originally published on Benzinga here. Led by CEO, Toby Gilbert, and CTO, Knut Vinger, Coinweb aims to become the first general-purpose layer-2 platform delivering truly unified interoperability, removing current transactional and computational bottlenecks. Coinweb enables maximum horizontal scalability while still maintaining the consistency and reliability of underlying blockchains’ security and decentralized properties. The platform solves many of the problems found in current cross-chain implementations without the unnecessary use of bridges or additional layers of consensus.2 DeFi projects have been built as a proof of concept that currently supports in excess of 170,000* unique users. Coinweb designed, set up, and issued a cross-chain stable token that the DeFi platforms have sold more than $260M USD* in the past 24 months, delivering up to 13% of all BCH transactions per day. Having secured various digital asset licenses all around the world, Coinweb offers multiple-fiat on-ramping and off-ramping solutions within its multi-tenancy wallet. Coinweb’s cross-chain tokenization platform and a simple marketplace help large and established traditional businesses digitize aspects of their businesses.*data based on December 2022 This post contains sponsored advertising content.

Top Fashion Brands Use AI-Driven Omnichannel MySizeID And Naiz Fiz To Deliver The Right Size The First Time Around

MySize, Inc.

By Ernest Dela Aglanu, Benzinga Shopping for clothing online, while convenient, can at the same time be very difficult, especially because the buyer can't try the clothes on first. All too often, they may receive apparel that doesn't fit – sometimes marring an otherwise great experience. A survey conducted by Power Reviews revealed that clothing topped the list of items returned by customers who purchase online. Clothing led with 88% returns, followed by shoes at 44%, and electronics at 43% as the most returned product categories. The survey further explained that the top three reasons people gave for returning an item were that it didn't fit (70%), the item was damaged or defective (65%), or the item didn't match the description (49%). These fit-related problems are costing retailers worldwide $642.6 billion, and only 48% of returns can be resold at full price. Even worse, an estimated 5 billion pounds of returns end up in landfills. To help solve this nagging problem and ensure customers receive clothing and other items that fit, MySize Inc. (NASDAQ: MYSZ) (TASE: MYSZ.TA), an omnichannel e-commerce platform and provider of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven measurement solution, has been partnering with a growing list of top retailers. Since 1999, the company has developed products such as MySizeID and recently acquired Naiz Fit to enhance customers' shopping experience by helping them find the perfect fit while driving revenue growth and reducing costs for its business clients. MySize says it is helping fashion brands and retailers use AI to create virtual try-on experiences. Now, customers can use their smartphones to create a profile and then virtually try on different clothing items. Top Fashion Brands Are Using MySize Technology Interestingly, some big brands have adopted MySize AI-driven measurement solutions to enhance customer experience while maximizing profits, serving as a testament to the quality of their product. In May last year, Denim brand Levi Strauss & Co. (NYSE: LEVI) revealed that it was adding more digital tools like MySize technology to help customers find the right size jeans as part of its mandate to grow direct-to-consumer sales. The company said it would implement two new digital fit features to its site: a predictive fit algorithm and a photo bank of products on people of different body types. Forint S.p.a., a leading Italian maker of uniforms for customers including the Vatican, Italy’s Presidency, and the Senate, in December 2022, selected the MySizeID sizing solution for its business. The company said it would offer MySizeID to all its business-to-business customers, providing a smarter and easier way to interact, resulting in a seamless experience and more accurate service. Another company that has adopted MySize's technology is Estudio de Moda SAS, a leading Colombia-based retail company with a portfolio of brands, including Diesel, Celio, Superdry PLC (LON: SDRY), Marithe François Girbaud, and Replay. The company announced on January 5 this year it will implement MySizeID sizing solution on its Diesel Colombia e-commerce site. Apart from the announcements mentioned above, MySize has entered into agreements with Temperley London, a luxury British fashion brand, and 7 For All Mankind (Brazil), a premium global clothing brand, to license its MySizeID apparel sizing solution. Also, after a year of proven success with Levi Strauss & Co. Turkey (Levi's Turkey), Dockers (Turkey) decided to integrate MySize's proprietary AI-driven sizing technology solution. According to the company, the successful integration of the MySizeID widget has reduced return rates for a subsidiary of the world's global leader in jeans wear. MySize believes that its technology, compared to others, can provide several advantages to consumers — especially including a better fit the first time — and retailers, who can save money because returns are reduced. People are also more likely to buy more when they are confident about fit. The technology also benefits the environment as it reduces waste associated with returns, carbon footprint, and clothing being discarded. This article was originally published on Benzinga here. MySize, Inc. (NASDAQ: MYSZ) (TASE: MYSZ.TA) is an omnichannel e-commerce platform and provider of AI-driven measurement solutions to drive revenue growth and reduce costs for its business clients. Orgad, its online retailer platform, has expertise in e-commerce, supply chain, and technology operating as a third-party seller on Amazon.com and other sites. MySize recently launched FirstLook Smart Mirror, a mirror-like touch display that provides in-store customers an enhanced shopping experience and contactless checkout. FirstLook Smart Mirror extends MySize's reach into physical stores and is expected to contribute to revenues through unit sales and recurring service fees.MySize has developed a unique measurement technology based on sophisticated algorithms and cutting-edge technology with broad applications, including the apparel, e-commerce, DIY, shipping, and parcel delivery industries. This proprietary measurement technology is driven by several algorithms that are able to calculate and record measurements in a variety of novel ways.

Substrate AI boosts revenue by 100% in 2022 to €4 million

Substrate AI

Madrid, February 2023.- Substrate AI, the artificial intelligence company listed on the BME Growth, has closed 2022 with a growth in revenues of 100% reaching 4 million euros of total revenues and fulfilling its business plan. All this, improving the projected negative EBITDA, thus reducing operating losses. Growth has been sustained mainly in the areas of health, agritechand HRH, where its subsidiary companies are growing with a focus on the application of AI in their businesses. In turn, the company has developed several AI projects for external companies that have allowed it to boost its consulting area. "We are happy with the end of 2022 that has led us to reach 4 million total turnover, but the most important thing is that we have been able to meet the times and objectives in terms of the development of AI solutions, boosting the products and capabilities of each of our subsidiaries and business areas to be able to continue growing in the future at the pace we have proposed. As we already published when we went public, we have a very ambitious plan that should lead us to obtain very high growth over the next few years supported by the adoption of AI in companies, which grows at rates above 30%. In this sense, the work of 2022 is simply the first stone of this project." says José Iván García, CEO of the company. The company published in its business plan a growth forecast of another 100% for 2023 that will lead it to invoice more than 8 million euros and that will be supported by growth in all business areas. Substrate AI bases its business model on the application of its patented AI technology inspired by biology in sectors such as health, agritech, HR,energy or finance, through subsidiaries focused on each of these areas and consulting work for large companies that require customized solutions. In addition, Substrate AI continues to develop new technological capabilities together with Rensselaer Institute of New York, now related to building sustainable AI that saves time and energy in building models. The large consumption of energy in the construction of artificial intelligence models and in the retraining of existing ones is a problem that grows every day and threatens to become something similar to bitcoin mining.

Stocks With News Making Moves (EPAZ, AITX, SYTA, RECHF)

RazorPitch EPAZ

One of the key factors that can influence the performance of a stock is the news release by the company whose stock you are interested in. News releases can provide valuable information about a company's financial performance, business operations, and future prospects, all of which can impact the direction in which a stock is headed. For investors, it is important to pay attention to company news in order to make informed decisions about buying, holding, or selling shares. Investors can better understand the risks and opportunities involved by staying up to date on recent events at the companies they are interested in. This allows an investor to make more informed decisions regarding their portfolios. Let’s take a look at four stocks that released important information this week to add to your watchlist. Epazz, Inc. (OTC: EPAZ) is a mission-critical provider of drone technology, blockchain mobile apps, and cloud-based business software solutions. On Monday, February 27, EPAZ announced that it had submitted Phase 1 SBIR proposals to the US government. According to ZenaDrone, which is a spinoff of Epazz Inc., the company will hear back from the government within 90 days. This announcement bears some impactful implications, as if ZenaDrone is in fact awarded a Phase 1 contract, which carries a value of up to $75,000 per proposal, EPAZ will be able to submit for Phase 2 contracts, with a value of up to $1.2 million per contract. The SBIR program is designed to get products into the government market. It has additional phases that open up major government contracts worth up to $15 million over the next three years. Additionally, if ZenaDrone is a part of the program, there will be opportunities to sell our drones to US allies. CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D., said, "We are taking multiple pathways to become a government contractor of drones. It is a major opportunity for us, as Chinese drones are banned in the US government. It has opened up major demands for our drones.” EPAZ hopes to take advantage of the Chinese drone ban, as currently, the US government has a major need for non-Chinese drones. The government is pushing initiatives to obtain made-in-America drones through their BlueUAS program. ZenaDrone is currently in the process of applying for BlueUAS, and according to EPAZ, the current list is very short. ZenaDrone Inc. is a provider of a multifunctional unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with machine learning systems, multispectral sensors, and AI technology. ZenaDrone uses the data its cameras capture to create a 3D interactive environment. The ZenaDrone team will use predictive AI analytics, a type of analysis that employs methods and resources to create predictive models and make forecasts of future outcomes based on acquired data. Techniques utilized in predictive analytics include machine learning algorithms, sophisticated mathematics, statistical modeling, descriptive analytics, and data mining. By continuing to advance its AI technology, Epazz Holdings will place a priority on developing the ZenaDrone 1000 in order to expand its reach across industries globally. For investors looking for the potential of the high returns that the OTC markets offer, EPAZ offers an attractive play, with competitive technology that the company continues to improve and invest in. Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (OTC: AITX) is a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions for enterprise clients. AITX focuses on the delivery of artificial intelligence-based solutions that allow organizations to gain new insight, solve complex challenges, and fuel new business ideas. Through its next-generation robotic product offerings, AITX's RAD, RAD-M, and RAD-G, the company is helping organizations streamline operations, increase ROI, and strengthen their businesses. On February 27, AITX announced that their wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc., has secured orders exceeding 300 units as the end of its fiscal year approaches. The company's fiscal year is set to conclude on February 28, 2023. With this impressive number of device orders received, AITX has proven its capacity to develop solutions that are both compelling and deliverable to picky customers. Demand for RAD's products is increasing, which is evidence of the company's exceptional innovation, quality, customer-centric philosophy, and expanding experience delivery. Premium customer experiences are positive for the company's capacity to grow. The stock experienced significant investor interest after the news release, and it ended the day Monday up 14.07%. Siyata Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: SYTA) is a B2B global provider of innovative, next-generation push-to-talk over cellular technology solutions that include its devices and cellular booster systems. The SYTA selection of consumer- and enterprise-grade cellular booster systems enables first responders and office workers to amplify cellular signals in off-the-grid locations, inside weakened structural buildings, and inside vehicles for the strongest cellular signal possible. On Monday, the 27th, SYTA announced the launch of the Siyata T600 Cellular Booster for T-Mobile 5G enterprise customers. The T600 Cellular Booster is designed to enhance signal strength and improve reception for T-Mobile 5G enterprise customers. This device is intended to deliver crystal-clear voice quality and lightning-fast data speeds, ensuring that users stay connected and productive. "Our T600 Cellular Booster represents the next generation of cellular solutions for enterprise customers," said Marc Seelenfreund, CEO of Siyata Mobile. "With its advanced 5G technology, the T600 provides the ultimate solution for T-Mobile 5G enterprise customers who need enhanced signal strength and improved reception." The stock rose 9.09% on Monday following the release; keep an eye out to see if it can carry the momentum throughout the week. Recharge Resources (CSE: RR) (OTC: RECHF) is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on exploring and developing the production of high-value battery metals to create green, renewable energy to meet the demands of the advancing electric vehicle and fuel cell vehicle markets. RECHF announced on Monday that it had signed an option agreement with Spey Resources Corp. under which Recharge Resources could acquire up to a 100% undivided interest in the Pocitos 2 Project, a 532-hectare lithium brine project located just outside of Salta, Argentina, and adjacent to the company's ongoing operations at the Pocitos salar. Previous surface sampling, trenching, and VTEM geophysics carried out in 2018 suggest the continuity of the targeted lithium brine aquifer continuing from the Pocitos 1 block through the Pocitos 2 block, with Pit 10 from trenching on the Pocitos 2 block having the highest trench sample at 181 PPM lithium, the highest lithium value found on the Pocitos salar to date. Drilling from the company's 2022 drill campaign at Pocitos 1 assayed 169 PPM, and over a two-week period, it averaged 161 PPM lithium. The 2022 well outperformed both the Recharges technical team's expectations and the measured lithium content of the 2018 discovery wells. Pocitos 2 is permitted to drill two additional wells immediately at Recharge's signal. Following the release of the news, the RECHF stock rose 6.25% at Monday's closing. Investors looking to gain from the high demand for lithium should keep Recharge Resources on their watchlist.

i2Coalition Launches Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative to Promote Industry Best Practices

Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative

Web data aggregators (“web scraping”) gather available data from around the Internet; enabling consumer confidence, commercial innovation, and community safety. To drive further awareness of and public trust in this crucial digital ability, the Internet Infrastructure Coalition (i2Coalition) has announced the launch of the Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative (EWDCI). This international, industry-led, and member-driven consortium of web data aggregation business leaders is focused on encouraging dialogue and improving digital peace of mind for consumers and companies. By establishing the EWDCI, the i2Coalition seeks to foster cooperation within the data aggregation industry and build a framework to establish an open, participatory process around the development of legal and ethical web scraping provider principles that will lead to greater accountability. The EWDCI is actively seeking more members of the data scraping field dedicated to establishing best practices to join and help shape the initiative’s early efforts. “The public deserves digital peace of mind, and ‘scraping’ doesn’t have to be a dirty word when it is done responsibly, but responsibility needs defining,” said Christian Dawson, the i2Coalition’s Executive Director. “As with any industry in these early stages, it has a unique opportunity to have a hand in how it is developed and perceived.” The web data aggregation industry is young and growing, and the founding members of the EWDCI are committed to serve as the voice of this emerging industry. This means collaboratively building public trust in the practice of data aggregation, promoting ethical guidelines, and helping businesses make informed data aggregation choices. Founding EWDCI members include five companies: Coresignal, Oxylabs, Smartproxy, Rayobyte, and Zyte. Web scraping enables business innovation and competition, provides consumer benefits—including serving accurate information and comprehensive pricing—and facilitates thorough data analysis for academic and public safety purposes. Some noteworthy use cases include: E-commerce price intelligence, including up-to-the-minute comparative information on same-item pricing across the internet Jobs and real estate listing aggregation Social listening and brand monitoring Alternative data for investment decision-making Businesses performing a thorough review of consumer trends and competitor companies worldwide to best position themselves for success Companies scanning the Internet data for illicit uses of their intellectual property Businesses confirming validity of marketing spend via ad verification Data aggregation companies supplying pro-bono scraped data to academic researchers, providing them vast data stores for essential research To properly provide these benefits to consumers, companies, and the public at large, data aggregators need to follow ethical practices. Such dedication will serve to further understanding of the data aggregation practice and process, and further the adoption of this technology. Key to this is a safe and community-minded application of aggregation, and therefore a positive reputation for the practice and its practitioners. The i2Coalition is the leading voice for businesses that build the internet, and has spearheaded the creation of similar efforts to create standardized industry benchmarks—such as the VPN Trust Initiative, which determined and promoted best practices for that vital industry. “The EWDCI aims to reach companies with this message of ethical data aggregation, as well as to educate consumers at large and legislators worldwide in the interest of informed, empowered action,” said Dawson. “This will promote industry-led stewardship of important—and already widely adopted—technology in the interest of solving any present challenges and setting the industry up for forthcoming success.” To learn more about the EWDCI, please visit www.ethicalwebdata.com. To become a member, please email Hilary Osborne. To learn more about the i2Coalition, please visit www.i2Coalition.com. About the Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative The Ethical Web Data Collection Initiative (EWDCI) seeks to foster cooperation in the web data collection and aggregation industry and leverage collective first-hand knowledge and insights to advocate for beneficial technical standards and business best practices regarding the aggregation of data. The EWDCI is dedicated to serving as the voice of the industry, collaboratively strengthening public trust in the practice of Data Aggregation, promoting ethical guidelines, and helping businesses make informed data aggregation choices.

CleverTap’s Fintech Benchmark Report: Only 1 in 5 users that install fintech apps sign up within week one

CleverTap

CleverTap, the modern integrated retention cloud, released its Industry Benchmark Report for Fintech Apps 2022. As fintech apps continue to grow more popular, the number of players vying for market share has increased. This has subsequently reduced customer retention and “stickiness” for any one brand. Therefore, today more than ever, it is crucial that fintech companies find ways to drive customer “stickiness” by engaging users in effective ways that eventually drive transactions and fuel growth. The report reflects data collected from Asia-Pacific, Europe, India, Latin America, Middle-East, and North America. The report gives marketers a truly holistic view of key metrics within the fintech app landscape.It also spans a wide variety of fintech apps, including, but not limited to, mobile payment apps, cryptocurrency, and block chain services, along with banking and insurance among others. These insights will not only serve as a helpful starting point for developing successful engagement strategies, but also assist in understanding how an app fares in comparison to global averages. Some of the key metrics in the report include: Install to sign-up rate: Only 1 in 5 users that install fintech apps (21%) end up signing up within the first week. Average time to sign-up: 70% of the users that sign-up, do so within 75 seconds of launching the app for the first time. Sign-up to conversion rate: 95% of newly signed-up users make at least one financial transaction in the first month. Average time to convert: 76% of newly signed-up users move from onboarding to deeper-in-the-funnel engagement within an average of 7 days. Session frequency: On average, fintech app users launch their app around 11 times a month. Average repeat transaction rate for new users: 15% of newly signed-up users complete more than one transaction in the first week. Average click-through rate for push notifications: On average, 9% of Android users and 6% of iOS users will click on and interact with push notifications. Average click-through rate for in-app notifications: The click-through rate for in-app notifications is 24%, that’s about 3 times more than that of push notifications. Average email open rate: 34% users open emails sent by fintech companies Average Stickiness Quotient: Fintech apps enjoy a stickiness quotient of 22%, that indicates nearly one-quarter of MAUs consistently return to their fintech apps “The fintech industry has seen exponential growth in the last few years. Given the relentless competition within the space, fintech platforms need to step up their Omnichannel engagement efforts to better retain customers,” said Jacob Joseph, VP-Data Science, CleverTap. “The benchmark metrics laid out in our report provide a great starting point for growth marketers looking to develop effective marketing strategies. They will be able to compare numbers against global averages and pinpoint which aspects they are excelling at and which areas could use some attention or innovation.” 95% of new fintech users complete a monetary transaction in the first month. This shows that while users see value in fintech apps, it’s important to adopt customized user engagement strategies to boost retention on the platform. Today there is a real need for fintech brands to bake-in effective marketing strategies within their apps. Users will remain responsive as long as the experience is engaging and seamless. The benchmark report helps fintech apps understand how to build successful mobile communication campaigns, and also allows growth marketers to discover areas that require greater focus.
