Prizeout Partners with Tandem; Pays Couples to Split Expenses

NEW YORK, May 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Prizeout Corp (Prizeout), the ad-tech company that turns financial balances into growth solutions, is helping couples make money off what they are already doing - splitting their expenses. In partnership with expense-sharing app Tandem, couples now have the ability to make money on their end-of-month balances and convert to additional purchasing power through more than 1,300 merchants and brands.

“Our value prop is truly helping consumers capitalize on their purchasing power. We’re literally paying couples to split their expenses,” said David Metz, CEO and Founder of Prizeout. “At the end of the week or month, couples can now choose to “settle up” through Prizeout, where they can see an average of 12% shown additional purchasing power on more than 1,300 relevant merchants that have been customized geo-targeted directly to them- and likely, brands they are already using.”

Many modern couples don’t want to have a joint bank account - it’s constraining and inherently not built for unmarried couples from a risk perspective. At the same time, the alternative of constantly (and manually) requesting money from your partner is burdensome. Tandem allows couples to split expenses with a swipe and say goodbye to endless payment requests, mental math, and money fights, and now with Prizeout, couples can use their end-of-month additional purchasing power and rewards towards vacations, new restaurants and other fun shared expenses and experiences.

“Especially with the current inflation rate, we’re beyond thrilled to be partnering with Prizeout and offer our users additional purchasing power on their everyday spend or many trips together,” said Daniel Couvreur, Co-Founder of Tandem. “We built Tandem to create a better option for couples who share finances - a solution without friction, with transparency, and ultimately now, rewards.”

Now, when couples go to their ledger to “settle up,” there will be a button to cash out through Prizeout. Upon clicking, the user will see a list of merchants customized just for them, with the offered additional purchasing power.

"My partner typically owes me a balance at the end of the month,” said Tandem customer Michael Metz. "With the Prizeout option, I love the ability to put the balance on a gift card and receive a bonus to shop at the brands we already use together! It feels like we're working together to increase our budget instead of just depositing the owed funds into my bank account."
