Consumer can make more informed decisions and evaluate all the options available to them at a few clicks, and providers have a new channel to acquire new to company customers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Making money while serving consumers for \u2018free\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"display: inline !important; float: none; background-color: #ffffff; color: black; font-family: 'Noto Serif JP',serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"> The basic purpose of every business is to make money.

text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"> Explaining their monetisation model, Sibtain said: \u201cWe primarily monetise by generating leads for the partners we work with, it\u2019s a success based marketing fee which is charged on each successful sale.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Despite challenges, entrepreneurial landscape flourishing in
