Think of Pogo as your agent in today’s digital world. Sync your data with the app and uncover new ways to earn money and smart ways to save. Users get rewards on every single purchase they make. When it comes to saving money, most people don’t know what opportunities exist and finding the time to take action can be even harder. Pogo pushes recommendations you can act on in a few clicks. For example, after linking your purchase data, Pogo will tell you if you’re overpaying on auto insurance and how to get a better deal; in fact, our users save an average of $500 per year on auto insurance! Pogo will also alert you when your bank charges you fees and automatically generate a refund request for you to send.

As it becomes more critical for families to stretch their dollar further, we’ve seen our app resonate deeply: “Pogo has to be one of the easiest apps I’ve ever used in my life. One day, it actually helped me with my car insurance…and it literally saved my family, no joke, $3000.” - Kimberly B

Pogo will also find ways for you to get paid for your data - if you choose. You own your data, and we believe opt-in should be the default, not opt-out. Pogo makes it easy for you to aggregate your data in one place, giving you the controls to get paid for use cases that you’re comfortable with, whether that’s anonymous market research or personalized marketing from trusted brands.

Josh Buckley, founder of Buckley Ventures, shares why he led the investment in Pogo: “Pogo is building a suite of tools that allows your average person to flip the script and harness their data for their own benefit. I think Pogo can become a legendary company–they’re growing extremely fast, and they have some of the best user retention numbers I’ve ever seen across consumer apps.”

While we’re just getting started, we’re proud of our fast growing community of happy Pogo users (4.9 stars across 25K+ app store ratings). If you’re interested in joining us on our journey, check out our open roles below.
