FinWise Acquires Tallied Tech Platform, Gains End-to-End Card Control

AI Summary

FinWise Bancorp has acquired the technology platform and related assets of Tallied Technologies, Inc., which powered the Bank's co-branded credit card programs. This strategic acquisition allows FinWise to own its card technology stack end-to-end, enabling it to retain fees, interchange, and interest economics previously shared with a third-party. The company anticipates approximately $4.0 million in integration and transition costs over the next year. Additionally, about $50 million in credit card balances will convert to standard balances on the Bank's balance sheet, and prior guidance for credit-enhanced balances is no longer applicable.
