Mehmet Burak Dikmen · Fintech and digital banking advisory

I help you get financial products live.

I work with fintechs, banks and companies launching a financial product. I stay in your team until it’s live.

01 · Which one are you?

Start where you are.

Most people who call me are in one of three places.

Fintech

The product, partners, the regulator and the app are all moving at different speeds. Someone has to pull them together.

Bank

Team spends the week on compliance. The new product you promised the board is still waiting.

Non-Fintechs

Thousands of people already trust you. There’s a financial product they would use, and you don’t offer it yet.

03 · Work

Built and launched.

04 · What you get with me

Money can’t be sold like chocolate. It’s earned through trust.

We've built banks in a countries where nobody knew the brands. The team went to people’s weddings before anyone handed over their money. Grilled with them. No deck teaches you this part.

+10 years intense experience

I’ve spent more than ten years building fintech and digital banking products. You get that straight from me.

I’ve had the same headaches

The wrong partner, a flow sent back by compliance, a launch date that keeps slipping. I’ve lived through all of them.

A recommendation with every decision

You get a clear call, the reasons behind it and what it costs. Something your board can say yes to.

Inside your team until it’s live

I work from inside the team and clear what’s stuck. I stay until the product is out.
