Income Smoothing for Gig Workers with Maria Hoyos of GoNSave

In this episode, I speak with Maria Hoyos, co-founder and CEO of GoNSave, a fintech focused on income smoothing for gig workers in Southeast Asia.

Maria started her career in microfinance in Latin America. She brought her experience to Asia when she pursued her Master’ of Science in Innovation at Singapore Management University. We talked about the unique needs of gig workers when it comes to income visibility, how gig work should be regulated, and inclusive finance learnings that span Latin America and Southeast Asia.

GoNSave, or Zaver as its app is known to its customers, allows gig workers to track their flexible earnings and provides personal recommendations to increase those earnings up to 35%. GoNSave was founded in 2021 and recently launched in the Philippines. They are raising their first round of capital - reach out if you would like to get involved.
