Banks as Matchmakers
Why?
You are thinking about buying a new car, so you try to decide which model and how to finance it. A car dealer might try and proactively sell you a car and help you find financing. This is true for many other products. The common third party in many cases is the bank financing the deal.
How?
Banks should have their own sales people who proactively do the matchmaking. They hunt for good customers and good businesses and approach the client with concrete offers based on their knowledge of him. In other words, they are the initiator – they sell the right product to the right customer and get to sell their financial services at the same time.

Make Sure No Recurring Charge Goes Through Without You Okaying It
Why?
You get a message that your card was charged for your monthly fee to something you don’t need or want anymore. You meant to cancel the service, but it’s only a few dollars a month, and you always forget until you get the next message you were changed again.
How?
A service that connects to your cards and an app that alerts you when a charge is being made. You have the option to ok it, or cancel this particular transaction or all future ones as well, with a push of one button. You can set a default for when you are not available.
