NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Array announced today its inclusion on GGV Capital’s Embedded Fintech 50 list, which recognizes the industry’s most promising B2B financial services platform companies as judged by the world’s top startup investors.
As 10,000 US-based financial institutions and another 25,000 other fintech companies and digital brands look to deepen their relationships with customers by introducing new financial products and services, they need a way to build and support consumer-facing products like credit monitoring, identity protection and privacy management while maintaining speed to market and holding the line on costs. Array offers a platform of compelling consumer offerings that these companies can deploy inside of their branded digital experiences to increase engagement and drive new revenue opportunities.
“Being named to GGV’s Embedded Fintech 50 list is a testament to the need for fintech solutions like ours that build enduring trust between consumers and the companies they rely on to streamline their personal financial management,” said Martin Toha, CEO and Co-founder of Array. “Banks, credit unions, fintechs and digital brands have a tremendous opportunity to empower their customers to own their financial future through access to the right data and tools - at the right time. We’re proud to be able to provide them with a platform that does that.”
After an exhaustive review of over 175 companies, Array was selected by a panel of 57 of the top venture and growth investment firms globally including Benchmark, Bessemer, Coatue, Founders Fund, General Catalyst, Greenoaks, ICONIQ, IVP, Khosla, QED, Ribbit, Sequoia, Tiger Global, Thrive, and Wellington, among others. Having raised more than $12 billion collectively, the Embedded Fintech 50 companies demonstrate the enthusiasm of venture capital investors in the growth and innovation of this sector. In celebration, honorees will ring the Closing Bell at Nasdaq MarketSite today.
