As we wrap up June, we want to share everything that’s been happening behind the scenes at Bankii, from product refinements and team growth to launch preparation and token ecosystem plans.
This month was all about laying the groundwork. While we’ve kept things relatively quiet on the outside, the internal machine has been running full speed, refining what we’ve built, stress-testing our systems, and preparing to go live with a product suite we’re proud of.
Let’s take you inside the engine room.
Product Readiness: The Core Is Set
We’ve made major progress on the Bankii platform across web, Android, and iOS. Our engineering and product teams have been laser-focused on delivering a smooth, intuitive, and secure experience.
- Web & Android Apps are ready and stable, with final QA cycles ongoing.
- iOS Launch is in progress through a regionally optimized rollout strategy, starting with Lithuania and expanding globally in July.
We’ll be sharing what’s inside very soon, including a powerful upgrade we think early adopters are going to love.
Hint: it has something to do with how you access your card… 👀
Go-To-Market: Every Campaign Ready to Fire
This month, we finalized a comprehensive GTM launch engine to ensure our upcoming release is smooth, strategic, and scalable.
Here’s what’s ready:
Pre-Launch Education Campaigns
Our team created a full pipeline of educational content to demystify crypto cards for first-time users, freelancers, and digital nomads.
These content drops will help us warm up over 10,000 users in the weeks leading up to the card launch.
Team Expansion: Building with Purpose
Our team is growing.
In June:
- We closed hiring on our Tech & Web Associate, who will support backend and CMS improvements.
- Our Business Development Pod ramped up outreach across core markets including Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, UAE, and the UK.
- Internal team coordination now runs through weekly pods, ensuring smooth GTM execution across Product, Marketing, Ops, and support compliance.
BKNY Token: Reactivation Strategy in Motion
Earlier in the year, we launched $BKNY with a presale and then IEO on P2B. While the performance didn’t meet expectations, it gave us critical insight into timing, readiness, and infrastructure gaps.
June was about recalibrating. Here’s the new path forward:
Reactivation Roadmap:
- P2B Deposits Reactivation in Q3
- DEX listing (Raydium/Jupiter) to increase accessibility
- Token Utility Activation — including:
- Vault rewards & cashback
- Reduced fees when paid in $BKNY
- Loyalty staking programs
- Vault rewards & cashback
Our belief remains: $BKNY should be the engine of real user engagement, not speculation.
Influencers, PR & Community Proof
We’ve quietly started mobilizing our community and voice amplification network:
- 10 micro-influencers are now onboarded across Africa, the UAE, and global Web3 communities.
- PR efforts are being prepped for July release across leading African and global crypto media outlets.
What’s Coming in July
Let’s just say… it’s showtime. Here’s what’s going live in July:
- Bankii Virtual Crypto Card Launch
- Flash Sale (7-day limited promo)
- Upgraded web and mobile App Global Rollout
- Referral Campaigns + Influencer Activation
- Educational campaigns
- Token reactivation activities begin
- and much more
Wrapping Up
This June, we focused on building quietly and intentionally, from refining product logic and campaign sequencing to preparing token infrastructure and team resourcing.
July, however, is where everything comes together. The card goes live. The utility begins. The community wakes up.
Thank you to our community, early supporters, and internal team for your belief. We’re about to take the next step in making Bankii the crypto card of choice for crypto enthusiasts..
Let’s build something lasting.
