3 companies offering Banking-as-a-Service in the Americas

By Edlyn Cardoza

Banking-as-a-service (BaaS) is built on the concept of Software as a Service (SaaS). BaaS is the plug-and-play banking equivalent that enables users to access financial services over the internet. The service describes a strategy in which FinTech companies partner with traditional banks to provide you with banking services in one integrated platform using API that becomes a single destination for your banking needs.

Banking-as-a-Service involves three parties – a TPP, which offers a brand of services to end-users. The bank is the entity that provides regulatory compliance for the whole BaaS platform.
