She looks at the camera and describes a habit: she opens her budgeting app each morning now. The phone screen faces away from the lens, so no figures appear. Replace the habit with whatever your customers really mention, such as checking categories on the train, splitting bills with a flatmate or setting weekly reminders. Use their words when you can, and keep the sentence about behavior. The clip works because the claim is small and personal. Money apps carry a heavy compliance load, so this version never states what anyone saved or earned. It states how long she has used it and what she does differently. Render several versions with different habits and compare which one holds viewers longest. ## Why this format works A testimonial about a habit is believable without a number attached, which matters when a financial claim would be pulled in review. The viewer hears a peer describe a routine, and routines are easy to imagine copying. Different habits give you separate ad variants to test. ## Script - Hook: I have used this budgeting app for three months. - Body: Now I check my spending categories every morning. - CTA: Link is below if that sounds useful. ## Prompt Paste this into the EzUGC video generator. ```text Vertical 9:16 handheld UGC video, selfie-style phone camera, soft afternoon window light. A woman in her mid-30s with shoulder-length brown hair and a cream cardigan sits on a gray sofa in a tidy living room, a throw blanket behind her. She holds her phone loosely in one hand with the screen turned away from the camera, looks into the lens, gives a small nod and a warm half-smile, then glances down at the phone and back up. Slight natural handheld movement, shallow depth of field, warm tones. She speaks in a calm, sincere, conversational voice and says: "I have used this budgeting app for three months. Now I check my spending categories every morning. Link is below if that sounds useful." Native audio with her voice and quiet room tone. No logos, no brand names, nothing readable on any screen. No on-screen text, no captions, no watermarks. Realistic hands with five fingers, natural face, authentic customer testimonial style. ``` ## Steps 1. Open the template in the generator. Click Make this ad and sign in. The prompt, model, 8 seconds and 480p portrait are filled in for you. 2. Use a real customer habit. Replace the morning check with a habit from your reviews or support tickets. Keep the time frame vague and leave out any amounts. 3. Vary the creator. Change age, setting and clothing across renders so each variant feels like a different customer. A commuter, a student and a parent make three useful variants. 4. Review before you publish. Read each spoken line against the ad platform's financial services policy, then post the clips as separate creatives and watch hold rate. ## Hook ideas - I have used this budgeting app for three months. - I used to guess where my paycheck went, and now I look each morning. - Ninety days in, here is the one habit that stuck. - A friend sent me this app, and I ignored it for a week. - Honest opinion after a quarter with this app. - I thought budgeting apps were a hassle, and this one changed my routine. ## FAQ ### Can the testimonial mention how much money the customer saved? Avoid it. Savings amounts are the kind of outcome claim that gets financial ads rejected and are hard to back up for every viewer. Describe the habit instead. ### Is this a real customer review? No. The creator is generated, so label the ad according to the platform's rules for synthetic or dramatized content, and keep the sentence close to what real customers tell you. ### Why does the phone screen face away from the camera? Generated screens fill with garbled figures and fake interface text. Turning the phone away keeps the frame clean, and you can cut to a real screen recording in your editor if you want one. ### What time frame should I name in the opening line? Use one you can stand behind, such as a number of weeks or months that matches how your typical customer uses the app. A vague line like a few months works if your data is mixed.
