Recently acquired by Vanquis Banking Group, Snoop is poised for substantial growth, leveraging the scale provided by Vanquis Bank's 1.7 million customers and gaining access to fresh capital. This strategic move aligns with Snoop's goal of expanding its reach and enhancing its financial offerings. Moreover, the recent partnership with data analytics company Starcount highlights Snooop's commitment to innovation.
