## Three content formats built for fintech

Each format ships with E-E-A-T scaffolding (author bylines, credentials, last-reviewed dates, .gov / .edu citations) and compliance review built in.

## FAQ

### Fintech marketing questions, answered

**Why should fintechs care about AI visibility?**

Fintech buyers run their highest-intent research inside AI engines — 'best high-yield savings 2026', 'how to refinance', 'is Robinhood safe for retirement'. ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and AI Overviews answer these directly under strict E-E-A-T constraints — and the brands they cite get the account opens, applies and downloads.

**What types of content does Indexly build for fintech?**
