In 2018, an old friend from university invited Timinsky to visit [[Pakistan]], which left a remarkable first impression on him. Attracted to the high rate of smartphone adoption and a sizable [[unbanked]] population, Timinsky decided to launch a [[neobank]] to disrupt 
the local banking by targeting the multi-billion dollar freelancer and remittances markets.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://profit.pakistantoday.com.pk/2020/04/04/whats-an-american-serial-entrepreneur-doing-in-pakistan-changing-the-way-you-bank-thats-what/|title=What’s an American serial entrepreneur doing in Pakistan?
