  • S8 E9: Fintech Recap: Klarna’s “Balance” vs. Banking, Affirm's Resilience, and Niche Neobanks Refuse to Die

    S8 E9: Fintech Recap: Klarna’s “Balance” vs. Banking, Affirm's Resilience, and Niche Neobanks Refuse to Die
    2024/09/04
    In this week’s episode of Fintech Recap, Alex is joined by Jason Mikula to dive into the latest on fintech. With BaaS Island quiet, the guys head over to BNPL for some fresh juice. First up, Klarna’s U.S. launch and its new “Balance” feature — despite the hype, it’s not quite banking. In the U.S., “Balance” is more of a wallet within Klarna's app, far from their European banking model. Klarna’s shooting for global banking glory, but the fine print reveals a different tale — more shopping convenience than banking breakthrough. Next, they break down Affirm’s Q4 earnings. Looks like Affirm isn't just riding the BNPL wave — they're hanging ten. The big question: is success in BNPL about flashy growth or building a resilient model? The answer might surprise you. Plus, they dig into broader fintech shifts: Comune’s standout $21.5M raise targeting underserved immigrants alongside Apple’s decision to allow third-party access to its NFC chip. Will these moves change the game or just tweak the status quo? Tune in to find out! 00:06:58 Klarna Buzz vs Klarna Reality 00:19:55 Affirm Affirms Steady, Cautious Growth 00:32:54 Niche Neobanks: The Next Big Thing, Again? 00:41:36 Apple “Kinda” Opens Up NFC 00:51:42 Can’t Let It Go Sign up for Alex’s Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.

  • S8 E8: Money Talks: What do Gen Z and Boomers Hear?

    S8 E8: Money Talks: What do Gen Z and Boomers Hear?
    2024/08/28
    Alex catches up with fintech storyteller Mary Wisniewski, Editor-at-Large at Cornerstone Advisors and host of the podcast Money Isn't Everything. In this episode, they dive into Mary’s latest research on Gen Z's financial habits—spoiler alert: Gen Z is more anxious and open about money than any generation before. From spilling the tea on student loans to salaries on TikTok, Gen Z is reshaping how we talk about money while grappling with social media pressures and major gaps in basic financial knowledge. The conversation also dives into a hot topic at the other end of the spectrum: the rising focus on fintech for the elderly. Fintechs like Charlie are stepping up with products to protect older adults from fraud and financial insecurity. Will this shift be a game-changer? And what can both young and old teach us about the future of money? Plus, they tackle Synapse’s impact on trust in fintech. Are consumers becoming more cautious, or is the lure of instant access still too tempting to pass up? Tune in for a fun, frank discussion on fintech’s future, emphasizing the need for greater empathy, understanding, and innovative solutions to better serve all gens. 00:01:51 - Are the Kids Alright? 00:08:07 - The Gen Z Psyche 00:23:01 - The “Boom” Moment 00:37:16 - Synapse’s Impact on Consumer Trust Sign up for Alex’s Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.

  • S8 E7: Not Fintech Investment Advice: Revenir, Summer, Jeff, and Axle

    S8 E7: Not Fintech Investment Advice: Revenir, Summer, Jeff, and Axle
    2024/08/21
    In this episode of Not Fintech Investment Advice, Alex and Simon spotlight the latest up and comers solving cool problems in fintech. First up is Revenir, which helps travelers and businesses recover sales tax on their purchases, making rebates happen "automagically" through its API. As a prime "found money" use case for AI, what's Revenir’s long-term strategy? Could a neo-bank leverage this feature as an exclusive advantage? Then, it’s Summer (the product, not the season) which helps grads manage student debt—combining loan repayment and forgiveness into an HR-friendly package. Selling to HR is tough, but is Summer’s recent acquisition the key to dominating this space? Or would a DTC approach be more effective? Next, Jeff (the product, not the person) is expanding credit access for the underbanked in the Asia-Pacific with non-traditional data for detailed credit profiles and scores. With its "FICO 2.0" approach, could Jeff set a new standard in credit evaluation? Plus, Axle automates compliance workflows with AI agents, handling tasks like sanction screening and KYC. Axle offers a clear value prop to firms overwhelmed by regulatory processes, but can their specialized AI scale across different fintech sectors? Finally, Alex and Simon try to manifest their fintech dreams: interoperable payment rails and unified AnnualCreditReport.com but not terrible. 00:02:20 - Revenir 00:15:15 - Summer 00:27:42 - Jeff 00:40:53 - Axle 00:58:03 - Manifesting Fintech Ideas Sign up for Alex’s Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.
