KOHO's homepage now says "2.5M+ Canadians getting ahead with KOHO" and shows 4.8/5 from 82K+ reviews. But the meta description, the Open Graph and the Twitter descriptions, which are what Google results, iMessage, WhatsApp and social link previews show, still say "Join over 1.5M Canadians". The French homepage says "1,5 M". Every searcher and every shared link sees KOHO a million members smaller than it is, before they reach the page the growth team designs.

Why it works
Have Compliance confirm the current member figure and the review source, then rewrite the English and French homepage descriptions around it (members, rating, what KOHO does) without rate, fee or approval claims. Do the same for the top 20 landing pages by search traffic, add one shared "proof" source so numbers update everywhere at once, and check the new preview in Google, Facebook and messaging apps.
Social proof in the search result is the cheapest lift in click-through there is, and a single source of truth stops the web and app from drifting apart again.

Evidence
- Your websiteHomepage (checked October 22, 2026): the page says "2.5M+ Canadians getting ahead with KOHO" and "4.8/5 Rating from 82K+ reviews", but the meta description, Open Graph and Twitter descriptions, which search results and link previews show, still say "Join over 1.5M Canadians"; the French homepage description says "plus de 1,5 M de Canadiens". The FAQ lists three plans (Core, Extra, Everything), each with a free 30-day trial. The menu shows "Blog" labelled "Coming Soon".Source
- HiringSenior Product Design Manager, Growth (remote Canada, posted September 23, 2026): leads designers "across zero-to-one, growth, onboarding" and the KOHO Design System "across app and web"; will "Coach teams through experimentation", "Balance growth velocity and unit economics with customer value, craft quality, trust, accessibility", and treat "growth as a product and design problem, not simply a funnel or conversion problem", toward KOHO's mission "to be the bank of choice for all Canadians".Source
- Your websiteSince October 2025 the homepage headline changed from "Canada's app for making money progress" to "The smart way to spend, save, and borrow"; the site added Heap and dropped Intercom. KOHO has pages for newcomers (/new-to-canada), CRA direct deposit (/cra-direct-deposit) and a feature-voting page (/coming-soon: "vote for new features that matter to you").Source
