Our take

Initially launched to provide a cashless payment option for Imperial students, Yoyo are focused on loyalty products for consumers, but also want to add deep value for the retailer.

The company offer a seamless experience, and have become popular by the rewards they offer and the loyalty points available for customers. Yoyo have partnered with Hard Yaka, a digital ID creator. whose platform, Global iD allows users to pay for goods and services.

Going forward, expansion plans are built around a primary goal: to expand the service to as many businesses as possible. Yoyo will help realise this through strategic hires and investment in their tech.
