Marcus Partners with Marqeta on Checking Accounts

Top Fintech Marqeta has partnered up with digital bank Marcus to offer digital checking accounts expected to be available to users later this year, Crowdfund Insider reports.

Marcus is the retail digital bank created by Goldman Sachs. Initially launched as an online lending platform, Marcus has emerged as a competitive digital bank, operating in the UK and the US, unhindered by legacy tech and the stale culture of certain incumbent banks.

Marqeta is one of the most successful Fintechs most people have never heard of. The company’s tech stack does the heavy lifting in the background for a bevy of payments and credit card providers.
