Douugh, Pinwheel partner for payroll switching in the US

Wednesday 13 April 2022 12:58 CET | News

Australia-based banking super app Douugh has partnered with income and payroll connectivity API provider Pinwheel to facilitate automatic direct deposit switching for its US customers.  

Douugh’s customers are currently limited to manual direct deposit switching, a solution that reportedly has a lot of friction. Working with Pinwheel increases Douugh’s chances of becoming the primary bank account for many of its customers. It’s a big opportunity, considering 21% of consumers have their primary bank account in a neobank which is expected to increase to above 45% in the next two years.

On average, neobanks see a direct deposit of USD 1,000 per customer each paycycle, meaning even just 1,000 customer switches can result in an increase of USD 26 million in deposits in a year.

Consumers are switching to fintech solutions because they efficiently deal with clients’ needs and are convenient. However, manual direct deposits are an obsolete feature and a source of friction for the end-user. 

Pinwheel has helped fintechs by automating their direct deposit switching, setting them up to increase revenue and better serve customers. Using Pinwheels API, Douugh is set to become a one-stop-shop for all its users’ money management needs.
