BaaS, AI, and Crypto Payments as Leading Enterprise Fintech Verticals

The PitchBook report also highlights some of the key trends driving enterprise fintech in Q2 2024. First, banking as a service (BaaS) continued to make headlines during the quarter amid increased regulatory scrutiny following the collapse of BaaS platform Synapse.

Synapse filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April 2024 after a combination of internal mismanagement, failed partnerships and broader market challenges led to the company’s downfall. The collapse affected nearly 100 fintech companies and millions of customers, TechCrunch reportedleaving around $160 million in deposits inaccessible and raising concerns about the stability of the BaaS model and the fintech industry’s heavy reliance on a few service providers.

Despite these setbacks, fintech companies continued to explore BaaS in Q2 2024: FIS spear in May its BaaS platform, Atelio; Equals Money, payment solutions provider, introduced in June a new BaaS product; Atmos Financial extended its relationship with banking partner Five Star Bank in June to explore BaaS opportunities; and Velmie announcement in May, a partnership with Unlimit to bring together Velmie’s platform with Unlimit’s cutting-edge BaaS offering.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is another major trend outlined by PitchBook, with fintech leaders and banks continuing to explore generative AI (genAI) applications in the second quarter of 2024. In May, Visa introduced its new Visa Account Attack Intelligence (VAAI) tool, which uses genAI to detect and prevent enumeration attacks in card-not-present transactions. The same month, JP Morgan revealed its IndexGPT tool, which offers an automated approach to the selection of thematic investment baskets.

Finally, crypto payments gained traction in the second quarter of 2024 as major payment players adopted blockchain solutions. In April, Stripe announcement it would start supporting global stablecoin payments using Circle’s USDC. The same month, Block, the company behind Square, Cash App and other services, announced a new program allowing merchants using Square’s solutions to convert a percentage of their daily sales into bitcoin, TechCrunch reported. The company also revealed plans to expand its bitcoin mining ambitions from chip design to developing a complete bitcoin mining system.

In the second quarter of 2024, enterprise fintech startups continued to capture the majority share of venture capital deal value in the fintech sector, accounting for 51.9% of total venture capital, according to PitchBook.
