The product was revealed at the 1 Billion Followers Summit in Dubai with Visa partnership and 72 hour onboarding.
Wio Bank has introduced the United Arab Emirates’ first banking account designed specifically for content creators and digital entrepreneurs, marking a new product aimed at the growing creator economy. The launch took place in Dubai during the fourth edition of the 1 Billion Followers Summit, organised by the UAE Government Media Office under the theme ‘Content for Good’.
According to Wio Bank, the account is intended to support income management, payments and business growth for creators who often operate across multiple platforms and markets. The product was developed in partnership with Visa and can be opened within 72 hours through a fully digital process.
The account is multi-currency, has no minimum balance requirement and includes tools to manage bills and business operations without the need for an accountant.
The 1 Billion Followers Summit is described by organisers as the world’s largest gathering focused on the content creation economy. This year’s edition brings together more than 15,000 content creators and influencers, alongside over 500 speakers, with a combined global following exceeding 3.5 billion.
