Furthermore, we will increase our financial capabilities to provide customers with different financial products under a single roof. When it comes to open banking and brand new products, we will continue making a real difference in the market.
The Year Ahead: A Complete, End-to-End Financial Experience
One of the notable areas of focus in 2024 for Ozan SuperApp was its strategic initiatives in export. The company developed specialised solutions for exporting companies that increased Turkiye’s foreign currency inflow and utilised its manufacturing potential. Ozan SuperApp will continue to offer such solutions, while another important item on Ozan SuperApp’s 2025 agenda is to implement international money transfer solutions for both individuals and businesses. Ozan SuperApp will become an important player in the sector fast with competitive pricing and a great user experience. At the same time, it will offer instant money transfer opportunities for its users by completing the FAST integration. Another important milestone for Ozan SuperApp is to successfully launch open banking products and services in 2025. With the completion of the final regulatory approval, Ozan SuperApp will be able to provide a complete domestic open banking solution in Turkiye.
Boosting Employee Well-Being is Key for Growth
Ozan SuperApp’s new management has quickly put in place many policies aimed at boosting employee satisfaction in 2025. Notable improvements were introduced to employees’ fringe benefits, and new practices have begun that prioritise employee well-being while providing a more meaningful work life. From special welcome packages to cashback opportunities, from unlimited, comprehensive private health insurance to fun meet-ups and language courses, employee satisfaction measures are an important part of the story when it comes to reinstilling the spirit of growth at Ozan SuperApp.
