S1 E15: Katherine Anthony, CEO of Euphoria | Fintech and Equity | Transgender

Kate Anthony isn’t just leveling the playing field, she’s building a whole new one with her company Euphoria, bringing out the best in Fintech and changing lives..

Between 2-6 million people in the United States identify as transgender and 34% of those go without official identity that matches their gender. This gap makes it hard to access banking products. That’s where Euphoria steps in with a suite of technologies offering information, support and, crucially, a banking app that helps transgender people achieve their transition-related goals.

Nicole and Kate discuss how the app, Bliss, allows people to plan and save. They talk about some of the key financial struggles the trans community face, and how fintech is helping ease some of those burdens and financial stress points.

Kate talks about her own struggles on the path to becoming her true, authentic self and how her relationship with technology has played such a major role in her own transition.

You’ll also learn more about Euphoria’s services supporting and advising transgendered people and why 80,000 platform users is just the start.

Kate is determined to grow her platform and as founders know, aggressive growth comes with increased risk. That’s when you need Sift, supporting you every step of the way preventing fraud and improving growth with dynamic friction. More information here: www.sift.com
