The Problem Floatpays Solves
1 in 3 South Africans rate their financial stress as medium - high!
Statistics show that most South Africans spend 80% of their take home pay within the first 5 days of the month - with 3/4 of their take home pay going towards paying off debt! To put this in perspective: an employee earning a net salary of R15,000 spends R11,250 servicing debt, which leaves them with just R3,750 to survive until their next payday.This forces them to take on more debt to make it through the month and thus, the debt cycle continues.
