Confidential: finding customers for a finance product

Confidential fintech · Fintech · UK & international — withheld

Real QUBE work. The client cannot be named. We only show numbers they allowed.

Results we can show

Verified results

Not disclosed

No figures invented. Confidential.

  1. 01

    Challenge

    Paid acquisition was being celebrated on platform ROAS while KYC drop-off, activation and 90-day retained users lived in another dashboard.

  2. 02

    What we saw

    In fintech a lead is not a customer. The result that matters is an activated, compliant account that is still there on day 90.

  3. 03

    Plan

    A single definition of activation. Paid structured around that result. Onboarding treated as a conversion product, not a legal PDF.

  4. 04

    What changed

    Marketing, product and risk shared one activation number. Creative was judged against it.

  5. 05

    Result

    Not disclosed.

Objective
Connect creative, paid, onboarding and activation so CAC was computed on a user who survived — not a click that hoped.
Audience
Not shared

What we did

  • Activation definition agreed with product and risk
  • Paid search and paid social rebuilt around that result
  • Measuring the sign-up path
  • CRM lifecycle from signup to funded/activated
  • Creative testing against activation, not CTR

Parts of the work

Paid media

Spend only defensible against activated CAC.

Digital / website

Landing and onboarding as one product.

Winning more from visitors

KYC friction designed, not endured.

CRM

Signup, KYC, funded, retained — one record.

AI

Sorting and drop-off recovery. Not a chatbot on the homepage.

Data / attribution

Source to activated user. Platform ROAS is not the KPI.

What happened next

Confidential. The public lesson is the result that matters, not the multiple.
