Fintech Recap: Current's Credit Builder, Plaid's Payroll API Partners

Fintech Recap: Current's Credit Builder, Plaid's Payroll API Partners

Published 2 years, 8 months ago
Description

This month, Alex Johnson and I had the chance to talk about:

* Current launched a credit-building secured charge card. While it features a neat bit of engineering, it may face some of the same limitations and challenges of other offerings in the space.

* Plaid announces (well, sort of?) payroll API partnerships with Pinwheel and Atomic — what to make of the news?

* Lineage Bank’s rapid, BaaS-powered growth may be a cautionary tale; Fed warns Goldman on BaaS compliance risks

* Roger, a neobank for military recruits, launches

* and, as always, what Alex and Jason just can’t let go of

(I’m testing adding an automated transcript to this post — let me know if you like it, hate it, or otherwise have thoughts on this addition!)
