Easy Access Pots are eligible for up to £85,000 by the Financial Service Compensation Scheme.
Edoardo Moreni, CEO of Emma, said: “Emma first and foremost use case is to save customers money. We have been doing this for the past three years by offering insights and tracking functionality on top of Open Banking data.
