This new fintech venture offers service aggregation by combining everything a mobile wallet has to offer with social content sharing. Based in Denmark, personal finances startup Puut Wallet is a "leather wallet replacement" that enables users to receive, store and use the contents of their wallet all over the world.
Puut Wallet contains not just your credit card information and loyalty cards, but receipts and vouchers as well as tickets, boarding passes and biometric identification too. The app allows you to add or remove content from other apps. It also has different social features that let you create groups for city-based shopping, so members can collectively buy products from local shops at a discounted price.
This sort of service aggregation suggests other mobile phone services could be combined too.
