Another good headline for Yahoo today. Yesterday, we noted that Yahoo News is launching a creator program so that lifestyle creators (fitness, travel, etc.) can publish and monetize stories under Yahoo News. Today, we find out…

📰Yahoo is buying Artifact (the news app from Instagram founders) for its tech.

🛒Amazon’s ditching just-walk-out-checkout for checkout-while-you-shop.

🗣️Apple has a new AI model called ReALM that could make Siri better.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT
Offshore banking for those who need it

Imagine traveling to another side of the world with all of your money strapped to your body.

Maker Abdallah AbuHashem said that’s literally what he had to do when he moved. He grew up in Syria and “when you come from a distressed country, banks label you as a high-risk client, and in most cases, refuse to provide banking services,” AbuHashem explained.

Without banking, hundreds of millions of people in a similar situation don’t have a safe place to put their money on top of losing out to inflation.

So AbuHashem, and his fellow Rhodes scholar cofounder Amer Baroudi, who also fled war in Syria, started nsave.

nsave makes banking accessible to people who live in unstable economies, like those in Egypt, Argentina, and Lebanon. The fintech startup provides its customers a multi-currency (USD, EUR, and GBP), Switzerland-based account to protect their savings, a physical or virtual Mastercard, and a Zelle-style feature to send and receive money.

The concept of offshore banking isn’t new, but it’s typically only used by wealthy or well-networked people. If you go to open an account with nsave, you’ll still go through a risk assessment, but getting a bank account won’t be based on where you live.

Head over to the launch page to drop your support or questions for the nsave team now.
