California based startup that lets gamers link their gaming activity to their bank accounts so they can save as they play, has raised $12m in seed funding. The founder is an Acorns co-founder.
Says Cruttenden: "It’s tough for most people to save money, so we created Blast to help people start accumulating wealth simply by doing what they already enjoy - playing their favorite games...Gamers tell us they feel better with the time they spend gaming when they know they are micro-saving or micro-earning in the background."
