I’ve tried a couple of money apps. What is unique about bigmo?
Bigmo is all about big moments and all about helping you to reach your big moments. From the ground up we are designed as a goal setting and goal fulfilment product whilst combining other insights that you’d expect out of a money app. Bigmo leverages behavioural economics and game mechanics at the core to influence human behaviour towards rational financial decision making. Whilst other apps could help you to manage or track your money, we help you to manage your mind and be better with your money in a gamified way. We focus primarily on goals and achieving goals.
-
Can you give a quick intro on bigmo?
Saving money is hard, boring and takes ages. No wonder 1 in 4 UK adults have less than £100 in savings. Bigmo (Short for Big moments) is on a mission to help users save more for their big moments in life. As a user you set goals, link your accounts and participate in a gamified competitive mission to fulfil your goals, where you compete with peers to achieve your goals. Each week as you are disciplined with your spending, you earn bidz which is our in-app virtual currency, participate in weekly mini games and live auctions to win exciting rewards every single week. The rewards get better the better you perform.
-
How does bigmo measure my discipline?
You give consent to link your bank accounts securely with bigmo to allow read only access for bigmo. We track your spending and our algorithms work out how well you are performing with respect to your monthly goals.
-
Can I change my goals and targets after I’ve entered a monthly challenge?
You could change your goals and targets, after you had entered a monthly challenge but that will be reflected in the next month challenge. Like any other challenge you can’t change the rules of the game after the challenge has started - sounds fair?
-
How does bigmo encourage me to save?
Saving money for later isn’t as exciting as spending it today. At its core, bigmo is designed to help you spend within your limits and save more for tomorrow. Bigmo leverages behavioural economics and game mechanics to motivate you to be disciplined with your money.It’s a money app that doubles as a goal machine. When you download bigmo, you not only get the insights you expect in a money but all the power of a goal machine that propels you towards reaching your goals faster. A unique challenge led model coupled with comprehensive insights and incentives is expected to keep you motivated and helps you in achieving your goals faster.
-
Is there a minimum I’d need to save in the challenge?
Yes. As this is a challenge, bigmo sets you up for ambitious but achievable goals. The minimum for the challenge is 50% of your discretionary spending allowance. So let’s say you earn £3000 a month and £1500 are your fixed expense(rent/mortgage, utilities etc), then bigmo expects you to save £750 to be eligible for the big rewards. Remember, there is still a tolerance limit you can set which should give you a further cushion.
-
What are bidz?
Bidz is our in-app virtual currency created within bigmo and rewarded to you based on your spending discipline as measured by bigmo. Bidz don’t have any monetary value inside or outside of bigmo. Bidz is a measure of your financial resilience and can be used to bid in auctions to win exciting rewards.
-
If I am not comfortable with bigmo, Can I opt-out?
For some reasons you decide it’s not working you can delete and opt out of bigmo anytime. Deleting will also disconnect from your bank accounts
-
Do I need to pay to use bigmo now?
At present, you could start using bigmo without a fee. In the future, we plan to introduce a "small" monthly subscription fee, which is also completely opt-in.
-
Will there be a free tier?
We plan to have a free tier with basic features
-
Can I win cash?
No, there are no guarantees for any cash rewards and we don’t make any assurances. Our designers and product leads are constantly thinking about making this fun and rewarding for you and the business
-
What are the different types of rewards?
Bigmo offers different types of rewards - virtual currencies, cash and experiences based on availability
-
Are rewards guaranteed if I perform?
Virtual currencies are guaranteed based on performance. However cash and other rewards are subject to availability and are not guaranteed.
-
Is Bigmo secure?
bigmo is regulated by FCA(Financial conduct authority). We use secure Open banking technology, recommended and trusted by banks. We ensure bank grade security and your security and privacy wouldn’t be compromised at the cost of running the business.
-
Are my savings safe?
Losing or increasing your savings is entirely within your control. Your savings will be within your existing accounts held within your existing financial institution- we don’t move any money out. bigmo just has access to your account and transaction information and can’t perform any payment or transfer transactions on your accounts or savings.
-
Can’t some users game the system?
bigmo has rules inbuilt to spot such cases. By integrating with users bank accounts and analysing their financial position, we can spot people trying to game the system. Such users will have a low chance of entering the challenge and also a low chance of winning rewards. This way the system remains fair for all.
