As of H1 2022, subject to regulatory approval, Starling hopes to make its Banking as a Service (BaaS) solution offering available in the EU, including France, Germany, The Netherlands and Spain, the bank announced.
“Starling as a Service” will enable businesses to build their own financial products on Starling’s award-winning banking platform, such as savings or current accounts, integrated digital wallets, kids’ cards and debit cards. Starling handles the technical and regulatory demands behind the scenes, leaving businesses to take care of their customers with innovative embedded banking solutions.
CEO Anne Boden, “The thriving technology and fintech scene in European markets makes them a great fit for the culture of innovation at Starling, and therefore a natural space for us to offer and develop our solutions in Europe.
“We have seen a consistent and growing demand for digital financial services, further accelerated by extended lockdowns and a shift in consumer behaviours in key European markets, and it is clear that Starling can power new and exciting opportunities for businesses across Europe”
Starling launched BaaS in the UK in 2018 and already has 25 payment and banking services customers, including Raisin, CurrencyCloud, Moneybox and Vitesse.
