Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Ryft (ryftpay.com) is a verifiable, FCA-regulated fintech based in the UK, providing automated payout solutions for marketplaces. External verification confirms significant traction, including £7.4M+ in funding (Series A) and over 1,500 merchant clients. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing vague claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), typos, and minimal data. The Proof of Usefulness score reflects the high real-world utility and verified traction of the business, heavily discounted by the poor quality of the provided evidence.
