5 Embedded Finance platforms reshaping the FinTech landscape
By Gloria Methri
Embedded finance is the direct integration of financial services into a business’s products and services, via API. This enables both financial and non-financial businesses to offer services like payments, banking, lending, and insurance without being regulated as financial entities or having any financial infrastructure themselves.
Customers can enjoy banking-related services from non-banking businesses without disrupting their customer experience and journey. Embedded finance consists of four main underlying categories: embedded payments, embedded banking, embedded lending, and embedded insurance.
An example of embedded finance is when a customer is able to subscribe to an online course and makes payment for it on the website itself.
Listed are five companies offering embedded finance services to the growing customer base in the UK.
