How Many Banking Netflix Subscriptions Does It Already Have? 300Gospodarki Talks at Impact'21

In this episode, Karol Sadaj, Aion Bank's manager for Poland, spoke with the editor-in-chief of 300Gospodarki, Daniel Rząsa.

In August, Aion launched in Poland and was hailed as the "Netflix of banking" due to its fully digital nature and subscription-based model.

Karol Sadaj discusses the first 3 months of the bank's operations in Poland. Why is this interesting? Because entirely new banks rarely appear in new markets. More often, large banks simply absorb smaller ones. So, how is Aion faring in Poland?

"We have over 10,000 clients. We managed to gather half a billion Polish zloty in deposits, which makes us very happy. Of course, the attractively interest-bearing savings account and the investment platform helped. It's a great success that we managed to collect so much money in such a short time. This is a good start, but now we are working to have 30,000 clients by the end of the year. That's our first milestone,” says Karol Sadaj.
