Visa
Visa is less a card company than a piece of global choreography - a network that turns a tap in a shop into a trusted conversation among banks, merchants and billions of credentials. Now it is extending that choreography to instant payouts, stablecoins and shopping agents.
MatchMove
MatchMove is a Singapore-based, MAS-licensed banking-as-a-service (BaaS) company that lets any business embed financial services - accounts, cards, payments and lending - directly into its own app through an API-first platform called Banking Wallet OS. Founded in 2009 by Shailesh Naik, the company markets itself under the tagline 'A Bank in Any App' and has issued more than 4 million cards, processed over US$5 billion in payments, and reaches 200+ payout countries through 100+ enterprise partners.
NymCard
NymCard is an Abu Dhabi-based embedded finance and payments infrastructure company that lets banks, fintechs, telecoms and enterprises launch and run card programs, lending and money-movement products through a single API-first platform called nCore. Founded in 2018 by Omar Onsi, it owns its issuing and switching technology rather than licensing it, is licensed by the Central Bank of the UAE, and is a certified partner of Visa and Mastercard across the Middle East, North Africa and Pakistan.
Pliant
Pliant is a Berlin-based B2B fintech that turns corporate payments into programmable infrastructure. Its API-first platform lets companies issue physical and virtual credit cards, automate spend controls and receipt handling, and plug card data straight into accounting systems like DATEV and NetSuite. Through its cards-as-a-service model, banks and software platforms can launch their own branded card programs. Founded in 2020 by Malte Rau and Fabian Terner, Pliant runs on the Visa network across 30-plus countries, serves more than 3,500 businesses, and raised a $40M Series B in 2025 to expand into the United States.
Boundless Immigration
Boundless Immigration is a Seattle-based technology company that combines software with licensed legal support to help individuals and employers navigate immigration. Founded in 2017 by Xiao Wang, Doug Rand, and Serdar Sutay, Boundless started by simplifying the marriage green card and citizenship process for families and has expanded - through acquisitions of RapidVisa, Bridge, and Berlin's Localyze - into a global immigration and mobility platform serving consumers and multinational employers across the Americas, Europe, and APAC. The company says it has helped more than 100,000 families with a 99.9% application approval rate.
Karat Financial
Karat Financial is a Los Angeles-based fintech building banking, credit cards, and financial tools for the creator economy. Founded in 2019 by Eric Wei and Will Kim, Karat underwrites digital creators and influencers using their social metrics and online business performance rather than traditional credit signals, giving YouTubers, streamers, and other entrepreneurs access to credit, banking, payments, and AI-powered bookkeeping that legacy banks routinely deny them.
Coast
Coast is a New York-based fintech building modern payments and expense-management software for businesses that run vehicle fleets and field teams. Its Visa-backed fuel and fleet card pairs hardware-grade spend controls with software that auto-codes receipts, matches transactions to GPS and tank data, and kills the monthly expense report. Founded in 2020 by Bread co-founder Daniel Simon, Coast has raised nearly $100M in equity plus significant debt capital, and serves thousands of fleets across construction, HVAC, landscaping, transportation and other field-heavy trades.
