Viber’s new design includes a bright background, new delivery status icons, (one checkmark means it was sent, two checkmarks means it was delivered to a recipient’s phone and two purple checkmarks means that the recipient saw the message).
The chat bubbles have been made larger to show more content on the screen. And there are higher quality thumbnails when photos or videos are sent out.

Per Zephrin Lasker, head of the company’s e-commerce venture, the company also plans on launching an e-commerce platform in Russia in the fourth quarter of this year, a move that will presumably help bolster Rakuten Coin’s adoption.

At Acorns, the micro-investing app, they have a mantra. Inspired by the mighty oak trees rising from forgotten seeds, the company gathers up many small transactions and deposits them into investment accounts. Then compounding interest and modern portfolio theory can work their magic over the years. The result is growing nest eggs for millions of people who might never have saved anything at all.
To amplify their impact, the company has developed a unique set of relationships with deep-pocketed partners including PayPal and BlackRock.
As part of their drive to integrate investing into every user transaction, Acorns has built an affiliate network, called Found Money, with some of the largest retail and consumer brands including Apple, Nike, Walmart and Airbnb.
Found Money operates like a cashback program. Anyone with an Acorns accounts can click a link through to a retailer’s website and and make a purchase. The sale is registered and a small percentage of that transaction is added to the consumer’s Acorns balance.
The goal is to extend their wealth management relationship across brands and deepen customer loyalty. Though most of the cashback bonus goes to the client, Acorns also receives a small amount from every transaction, creating a nice secondary revenue stream, Field noted.
