With this addition, nbkc continues to expand its comprehensive BaaS  offering, which includes deposit and loan account sponsorship, debit card  issuance, payment processing, compliance oversight, and risk management,  empowering fintechs to embed banking functionality quickly while  maintaining the highest regulatory standards.

“nbkc’s reputation as a responsible and forward-thinking BaaS and payments  leader made this collaboration a natural fit,” said Dylan Massey, co-founder  and CEO of Interchecks. “This partnership isn’t just about faster payments;  it’s about shaping what’s next.
