InHindsight, it’s so obvious. Of course, the consumer would prefer their cash at their doorstep while we (the banking industry, all Fintechs included) expected the legacy setup of consumers withdrawing their own cash (at branches or other physical locations) would remain as-is.Robinhood outinnovated the world yet again. I look at an entity that managed to take trading fees (from a consumer perspective) down to zero, have no issues executing on cash delivered to home.My only question for you is, which part of the journey do you find yourself (or your institution in):First they ignore you,then they laugh at you,then they fight you,then you win.As you can tell, I strongly believe, Robinhood has won. This is the same entity that has consistently disrupted financial norms—from pioneering zero-fee stock trading, prompting industry-wide elimination of trading commissions, to introducing fractional equity investing, making market access widely affordable. Now, their push for nearly round-the-clock trading has major exchanges considering 24/5 operations, underscores Robinhood’s lasting impact as a trendsetter reshaping the very foundations of the financial services industry.Robinhood is more than just another fintech competitor—it's redefining banking convenience and customer expectations. Leveraging a Gen Z-focused strategy, Robinhood’s entry into checking accounts comes with groundbreaking features: an unprecedented 4% APY savings rate, seamless banking-investment integration, and literal cash delivery to customers' doorsteps. It's not just convenience—it's the Amazon Prime experience of financial services.This transformative approach highlights critical blind spots traditional banks and fintechs might overlook, placing immense pressure on the entire industry to rethink our customer engagement models.
