Sana Qureshi

Sana Qureshi is a fintech and consumer-protection writer who teaches readers how the systems behind money actually work—and how to avoid their traps. Born in Karachi and raised in Leeds, Sana studied Information Systems and later completed a certification in financial compliance. She worked inside a fast-growing payments startup and then with a regional bank’s fraud team, where she designed onboarding flows, risk flags, and plain-language disclosures that real people could understand.Sana’s writing connects the dots between product design and your wallet: how overdraft policies really behave in 2025, the difference between soft and hard pulls, which alerts matter, and why security hygiene is about habits, not paranoia. She reverse-engineers fine print, maps data flows, and gives readers “good friction” checklists—two-factor setups, credit freezes, spend alerts—that reduce risk without turning life into an audit.She also compares everyday tools—debit vs. credit for travel, buy-now-pay-later vs. old-school layaway—and shows how to choose a stack that integrates cleanly. Off the page, Sana drinks too much chai, photographs rainy city streets, and teaches a quarterly workshop on digital self-defense for students and freelancers. Her north star: confidence comes from clarity, and clarity comes from seeing how the pipes are laid.
