Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) is an evolving concept in the FinTech industry, enabling businesses to proffer their customers’ financial services without requiring a banking license or infrastructure. Recently, BaaS has gained traction, quickly becoming an on-point trend throughout the [FinTech] industry. 

The current state of BaaS in FinTech

BaaS is an Application Programming Interface-driven (API) model enabling FinTech companies to integrate with traditional banking infrastructure. The integration offers its customers financial products and services, including online payments, money transfers, and lending to savings accounts, credit cards, and insurance.

Using BaaS, fintech companies can leverage established banks’ necessary resources and experience, offering their clients seamless financial products and services. These include products and services such as payments and lending, without needing extensive regulatory compliance, infrastructure, and licensing, creating a better user experience for consumers, who can access a wide range of financial products from a singular platform, other than navigating multiple financial institutions.

Moreover, BaaS is an attractive, viable option for traditional brick-and-mortar banks, enabling them to offer their services to a larger audience. By partnering with FinTech companies, [traditional] banks can expand their reach and offer their products and services to customers who have been previously unbanked and underbanked. Additionally, BaaS can assist banks in reducing their costs by outsourcing certain functions to FinTechs, fuelled by the increasing popularity of open banking, enabling consumers to share their financial data with third-party providers securely.

BaaS is an innovative model revolutionizing FinTech. By offering seamless financial products and services, BaaS enables FinTechs to compete with traditional banks while offering them [the traditional bank] a way to expand their scope while reducing their costs.
