MoneyHero Group is a Nasdaq-listed FinTech platform in Southeast Asia, empowering people to make smarter financial decisions. Its strength lies in combining technology, partnerships, and talent to deliver meaningful financial solutions to customers across the region.
After a period of rapid growth resulting in operations across multiple countries, MoneyHero reached an inflection point. “We needed a more robust integrated platform to support our growth ambition – one that could unify and simplify how we managed our people processes so we could expand at pace,” recalls Group Head of People & Talent, Monica Divik Agarwal.
After evaluating several providers, Workday stood out as a trusted AI-powered platform that aligned with MoneyHero’s values of Innovation, Empowerment, and Growth. “We liked that there was an accelerated path to value and no limits on our opportunity to grow,” says Agarwal. “Workday customer references also reassured us we were making the right decision.”
Accelerated path to tangible value.
For Agarwal, speed was of the essence to avoid losing momentum. “We're on a growth trajectory, both in terms of our markets and our people. We expect our headcount to increase over the next few years,” she explains.
Her formula for rapid success was to have clear priorities, a committed internal team, and strong collaboration with Workday and her deployment partner: EZE Cloud Consulting. Agarwal describes the entire experience as ‘fantastic’. “They didn't just configure the system, they truly understood our framework and challenged us to adopt best practice. It felt like one combined team, making the project both cost effective and business relevant,” she recalls.
Partnering with Workday and EZE allowed the team to move fast while still implementing with quality. By implementing quickly and efficiently via Workday GO, a preconfigured package designed specifically for small and midsized companies, People & Talent was able to reduce disruption, stay within budget, and deliver tangible value to employees within the same financial year.
Workday GO gave us the confidence to focus on adoption and engagement rather than being stuck in a long implementation cycle.

A future proof people strategy.
For the People & Talent team, the move to a single, mobile-first platform has transformed every ‘moment that matters’ for employees and managers. “Whether that’s onboarding new employees quickly, integrating acquisitions, or providing data for our workforce,” explains Agarwal.
She says self-service gives people direct control over their information, workflows, and career development, while a robust performance management module supports MoneyHero’s core values framework and helps to drive a high-performance culture. At the same time, automation and analytics have freed the People & Talent team from transactional tasks, allowing them to focus on partnering with the business and delivering meaningful insights.
“Our new AI capabilities have eliminated our scalability issues,” says Agarwal, “and the ability to constantly innovate means our people practices can keep pace as our business changes.”
Workday didn't just sell us a product. They worked with us through every step of this journey.
