Seamus Newcombe- CEO Payac

[H3] Client: Payac

The Challenge

Payac, the fintech branch of the Irish Credit Unions, is driving digital innovation to help credit unions compete with modern financial institutions. Ahead of the annual 2025 CUMA Conference, Payac needed a standout way to communicate the value of their new digital products and services. They wanted delegates to not just hear about the future of fintech in Credit Unions but to experience it. With no experience of an existing spatial storytelling platform, they required a fully guided solution that could transform complex product messaging into a compelling audience experience.

[H4]

The Opportunity

Create a multi-user mixed reality activation that redefines how fintech innovations are presented in a conference environment. By combining interactive spatial storytelling on an immersive multi-user mr platform, we could empower delegates to explore Payac’s products inside dynamic MR scenes tailored to the Irish credit union ecosystem. In collaboration with Payac, Monster Theory provided an end-to-end solution, a custom multi-user platform, bespoke 2D and 3D visuals, spatial content design, and live event facilitation resulting in one of the most talked-about highlights of the three-day conference.
