In today’s rapidly evolving financial ecosystem, traditional banks are under constant pressure to innovate and adapt. Enter Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS)—a transformative model enabling banks to offer digital banking services through APIs, white-label platforms, and embedded finance solutions. But with many BaaS providers now in the market, selecting the right one is crucial. At iGTB, we help banks identify and integrate the most strategic BaaS partners aligned with their business goals.
What Are BaaS Providers?
BaaS providers are third-party technology firms that offer modular, ready-to-integrate banking services. These may include core banking functions such as:
-
Account creation and management
-
Payment processing
-
Card issuance
-
Compliance and KYC/AML solutions
-
Loan and credit services
By using these providers, banks and non-bank entities can deliver seamless financial experiences to customers without building complex infrastructure from scratch.
Why Banks Are Turning to BaaS Providers
The demand for digital-first experiences is rising. Consumers expect the same speed and convenience from financial services as they get from tech companies. BaaS providers make this possible by allowing banks to:
-
Accelerate time-to-market for new services
-

-
Reduce IT costs through cloud-native infrastructure
