How to name your fintech app: picking a name customers will trust

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your own money app
  1. Name it and pick your colours
  2. Choose what it does
  3. Launch when you are ready

People are careful about who they trust with their money, so the name of a money app matters more than most. A good one is short, easy to say, and sounds like somewhere your customers would be happy to keep their cash.

What makes a good money app name

  • Short and easy to spell, so people can find it after hearing it once.
  • Easy to say in the languages your customers speak.
  • Says something about who it is for or what it does, or is simple enough to become a brand.
  • Available as a web address and on the app stores and social media.

Words to be careful with

In the UK and many other countries, words like "bank" and "banking" are protected, and a business that isn't a bank generally can't use them in its name. Words that suggest a guarantee or a government link can also mislead. When in doubt, check the rules in each country you plan to serve.
