What to measure in the first months of your money app

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your numbers, worked out
  1. Type in your own numbers
  2. The tool works it out
  3. See the answer clearly

It is easy to feel busy and not know whether your money app is working. A handful of simple numbers, checked every week, tells you where people get stuck and what to fix next.

Sign-ups

How many people create an account each week, and where they came from. This tells you which places and messages bring people in.

First payment

How many of those people make their first payment or transfer. If lots sign up and few pay, something between sign-up and first payment is confusing or scary. Talk to them and find out.

Try it

Name your platform and watch it come to life

Type a name, tap a colour and pick what it does. The phone changes as you go.

Design and preview your whole platform free, then launch when you are ready.

Second payment

How many come back and pay again. This is the number that shows people trust you and find you useful. A small app with loyal users beats a big one nobody returns to.

Questions and complaints

Keep a simple list of what people ask and complain about. The same question three times means your app or your website should answer it.

What you earn

Track what your fees bring in against what you pay out. The earnings calculator helps you see how this changes as you grow.
