About Lanistar
Lanistar is an innovative new banking alternative, with plans to 鈥渞evolutionise the world of personal finance鈥�, putting the customer at the core of everything they do. The startup was founded this year, and claims to provide the safest, securest and the simplest financial product available on the market today. CEO and founder Kiziloz claims in a previous interview with 91探花:
鈥淲e鈥檙e not just here to challenge the status quo, we鈥檙e here to completely takeover, instituting a completely new way for our customers to think about and manage their money. This won鈥檛 be easy, and we鈥檒l need to take on the leaders in the marketplace, but we鈥檙e determined to do this to make our vision of improving the nation鈥檚 financial wellbeing a reality.鈥�
Lanistar was inspired by Kizoloz鈥檚 own personal dissatisfaction with the products available in the UK banking sector. Whilst other areas of business have progressed tremendously over the last 10 years, Kizoloz states the financial sector has lagged behind, with many of the products currently on offer holding the same fundamental qualities as those from hundreds of years ago.
With a lack of innovation and customer-first products, Lanistar sets out to provide a product that will 鈥渉and power back to the consumer鈥�, personalising, and further enhancing, their day-to-day banking experience.
The company has set some impressive aspirations for its future, Kizoloz鈥檚 ambition for Lanistar being to achieve unicorn status, with a minimum value of 拢1 billion.
