Company mission
To provide a better planet for digital assets, delivering sustainable, accessible, and secure ways to unlock the benefits of Web3.
Our take
Young people often lack significant savings, and a striking 77% of millennials express skepticism about the conventional financial system, which they believe primarily benefits the wealthy and influential. In response to this sentiment, Zumo has introduced an inclusive crypto wallet that provides people with a financial system that caters to their needs.
Zumo's user-friendly app eliminates the requirement for advanced technological knowledge when venturing into the world of cryptocurrencies. This innovative platform facilitates the purchase, transfer, exchange, and secure storage of cryptocurrencies while also enabling users to link their crypto balances to a Visa debit card for seamless spending, akin to traditional currencies. Additionally, Zumo's website offers easily comprehensible guides designed to demystify the intricacies of the crypto landscape.
Zumo operates in a landscape where numerous companies are striving to make cryptocurrencies more accessible to a broader audience. However, it stands out as a remarkably approachable option. particularly for those who are new to the world of digital assets.
