The challenge

Where the business started

A consumer wallet was generating sign-ups through paid social, but many users never completed verification or made a first transaction, and repeat usage was low.

Marketing, support and sales activity were not connected, so nobody owned the journey from click to active customer.

Our approach

  • Funnel analysis from ad click to first transaction
  • Restructured Meta and TikTok campaigns optimising for verified users
  • Activation calls to new sign-ups within hours
  • Retention and win-back campaigns by segment
  • Creative refresh with compliant rate and fee messaging
  • Weekly joint growth reporting

Outcomes

What changed

One team accountable for the full customer journey

Campaigns optimised for meaningful actions, not clicks

Clear view of cost per active customer

Repeatable activation and retention playbook
