The launch of Manifest Financial comes as the creator economy continues to experience rapid growth with experts predicting the market size to reach half a trillion dollars by 2027. Despite creators becoming more mainstream, traditional financial services in the U.S. have lagged in adapting to the key needs of the industry. Managing multiple revenue streams – brand affiliate deals, merchandising, audience tips – across different platforms remains a challenge.

“After spending over two decades in banking across multiple industries, it was clear there was a gap in the market for creators needing the right financial tools,” said Cavallaro, Co-Founder and CEO of Manifest Financial. “Creators face unique challenges that don’t fit conventional banking categories.

The launch of Manifest Financial coincides with the announcement of two strategic partnerships designed to revolutionize financial management across the creator economy.
Partnership with hoo.be
Manifest Financial’s partnership with hoo.be, a platform used by thousands of top creators, influencers, and brands to streamline their digital presence, integrates its tailored B2B financial solutions directly into the hoo.be platform.

“By partnering with Manifest Financial, we’re solving a fundamental problem that creators have battled for many years now,” said Jordan Greenfield, Founder and CEO of hoo.be. “This integration means our community can focus on creating content while having powerful financial tools right where they already work, rather than battling traditional banking services that were never designed for them.”
Partnership with Too Lost
Manifest Financial has also partnered with Too Lost, a leading music distribution platform serving over 250,000 independent artists and labels worldwide, to provide financial clarity to artists.
