In this episode, I speak with Rachel Freeman, Chief Growth Officer of Tyme, a neobank that began operations in South Africa and has recently been making waves in the Philippines as GoTyme.
Rachel has lived in every corner of the world and has been a pioneer of inclusive financial services. She speaks fluent Russian and spent her early career in Russia building a microleasing business. She then spent 17 years at the IFC, which took her to Kazakhstan, South Africa, and Hong Kong. When she decided to join the startup world, she was impressed by the Tyme team and has been instrumental in their market and product expansion in Southeast Asia.
Tyme provides a suite of digital banking solutions, including consumer savings accounts and SME loans. Across markets, the neobank is known for meeting customers where they are, through their innovative card creation kiosks in local grocery stores. Tyme also reported profitability for the first time in December and is soon expanding to Vietnam. You can learn more about them by visiting tyme.com.
