Texas-based payment solutions company Rev19 has purchased Indiana-based PAYK12, a payments solution provider for schools.
Financial terms of the transaction were not revealed.
Rev19 intends to create a “transparent, service-centric” payments sector to drive the growth of organisations.
Its latest tie-up is aimed at eliminating the distinctions that currently exist between fintech and edtech. Integrations with digital, e-learning platforms are anticipated next year.
Commenting on the takeover, Rev19 CEO Corey Young said: “With PAYK12, we seek to streamline education payments by integrating their platform into our existing, proprietary tech stack.
“The goal is to place industry-leading fintech in the hands of educators and students so they can rapidly boost learning outcomes in the classroom.”
