* Credit cards sans credit scores: Tomo raises a $22 million Series B, X1 gets ready to launch
* A tiny credit union sues Apple for antitrust, arguing Apple Pay fees card issuers pay are unfair
* Zelle fraud has skyrocketed — and the CFPB is pushing banks to take more responsibility for customer loses
