Save president and COO Adam Watts added: “Galileo will make it easier for Save to help our customers open accounts, fund their accounts and integrate those accounts with our bank partners’ back-end systems.”

In addition, to Save, Galileo’s clients include Chime, Greenlight, MoneyLion, Monzo, Revolut, SoFi, TransferWise and others.

Galileo CEO Clay Wilkes said: “Save has big, ambitious goals to help people earn higher yields on their savings while still getting the safety of FDIC-insured deposits.

“Every transaction that Galileo helps Save process furthers the mission of giving customers more value from their bank accounts.”

Last month, B2B payments fintech company BluePenguin renewed its partnership with Galileo.

Back in April 2020, online personal finance company SoFi agreed to acquire Galileo in a deal valued at $1.2bn.
