Alkami & Atomic team to offer direct deposit solution for financial institutions
By Delisha Fernandes
Alkami Technology, (Alkami), a cloud-based digital banking solutions provider for financial institutions in the US, has partnered with Atomic, a provider of payroll connectivity, to offer direct deposit switching solution that allows account holders to seamlessly connect their payroll accounts to any financial institution.
“We are excited to partner with Atomic to offer our customers this valuable solution,” said Adam Craig, vice president, corporate development. “The true power of the Alkami platform is in the extensibility it offers financial institutions to grow with best-in-class partners and solutions like Atomic. Fintech partnerships like these give financial institutions the tools they need to earn primary financial institution status and maintain that status as they scale to meet the growing needs of their account holders.”
As part of the partnership, Atomic’s direct deposit switch solution will be integrated into Alkami’s Digital Banking Platform. This will make it easier for community and regional financial institutions to offer their account holders a quick and convenient way to set up and switch direct deposits, further helping financial institutions to grow direct deposits, account acquisition, and primary relationships. This enhancement eliminates paper processes, significantly decreases wait times often incurred with traditional methods, and reduces the cost of deposit acquisition.
“We are thrilled that Alkami chose Atomic to offer our direct deposit solution to their growing customer base,” said Jordan Wright, co-founder and chief executive officer of Atomic. “Direct deposits are a major driver of account growth and profitability for financial institutions. In fact, we’ve seen financial institutions who leverage Atomic experience as much as a 50 percent lift in direct deposit conversion. We believe the Atomic Deposit plug-in will quickly become a core component for financial institutions as they continue to scale with Alkami’s lineup of best-in-class partner solutions.”
