Here’s a message from Dan, our CEO, to recap on, not only our awesome achievements but the goals our users smashed this year  — we couldn’t have done it without you!

Exciting news! AWS Canada has just unveiled its new AWS Canada West (Calgary) Region, marking a significant milestone as the first major cloud services provider with an infrastructure hub in Western Canada. As KOHO operates on AWS we can now provide even more support for our users.

Our CTO, Jonathan Klein, shares the scoop:

‘’The new AWS Region near Calgary will deliver several benefits for our business, including having a failover region in-country so we can provide improved resiliency and reduced latency to our users.”

In simple terms, this launch makes our infrastructure more reliable and responsive, ensuring you get the best experience possible 👏🏻

Our teams all over Canada came together to wrap up the year in style this week! 

As a remote-first company, creating social hubs across Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary and online has been so important for us to keep our teams connected. And our holiday celebrations certainly proved it! 

From cookie decorating to ugly holiday sweaters, to bowling and charades, with lots of laughs and fun in between (including an appearance from the fabulous Miss Moço from season 3 of Canada’s Drag Race 🌈 ), the get-togethers closed off a great year for KOHO with a bang!

None of it would be possible without our incredible hub leads who already have us guessing what’s to come for our Q1 get-together  👀

Today, some of our dedicated Toronto team braved the cold to see KOHO's name up in lights ✨ 

A big thank you to the Toronto Stock Exchange for featuring us. Catch us on display at 100 Adelaide St. for the next few weeks – don't forget to snap a picture if you're in the area.

What's your take on our jump shot – did we nail it? 🚀

After our announcement yesterday, it's fun to look back and see how far we have come 🚀

Did anyone have our very first card?

Meet Sherry Andrew one of our awesome Financial Coaches who is ready to share her money management wisdom 😎

In yesterday’s fall economic statement, the federal government announced it would implement a consumer-driven banking framework in budget 2024, as well as make payment service providers, like KOHO, eligible for membership in Payments Canada — big news for Canadian banking 👏

As a reminder, here’s why consumer-driven banking is so important:

—More financial freedom: Canadians will get more choice and transparency when it comes to managing their finances.
— Seamless payments: It will make transactions faster and easier across Canada.
— Financial inclusion: It will bridge the long-standing gaps in access to good financial services.
— Strong security: It will mean more prioritization of data safety and privacy.
— A fairer financial system: It will make it harder for traditional banks to charge high interest rates, promotional rates, and hidden fees.

Shoutout to everyone who pushed this forward including the folks at Fintechs Canada. At KOHO we will continue to be advocates for a fairer financial future for all Canadians and we are just getting started! 🚀
