Our take
Embedded banking, or Banking-as-a-Service, has been a major driver of the fintech explosion. It allows challengers and smaller players to rapidly incorporate novel financial products and infrastructure without building from scratch - and major players to keep pace with increasing consumer demand for fintech services. Thredd (formerly Global Processing Services) focuses on paytech, with a tranche of services including major areas like payments, wallets, fraud prevention, and crypto management.
This diverse offering across high-growth fintech sectors has helped Thredd draw in hefty funding, and key clients across the key fintech markets of Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East, including Revolut, Curve, Cape, and Starling Bank.
This shows quite how far Thredd has managed to capture significant market penetration, which has given it the resources to continue building out key new products. With more non-fintech businesses looking to leverage the benefits of embedded banking, this could see Thredd expand into further markets such as insurance and loans. Certainly, Thredd has both the momentum and the valuation to take the plunge into other lucrative verticals.

Company values
- We collaborate with purpose each and every day - We can win when we collaborate as a team – creating a workplace culture that is focused on teamwork, open communication, and mutual respect. Our strength is in working together: building trusted relationships; supporting each other in our shared goals; and bringing the right people into conversations. We strive to foster an environment where collaboration is strategic and purposeful, and everyone feels empowered to contribute their unique skills and expertise. We believe that selecting the right collaborators means understanding everyone’s skills and expertise, and considering how they can contribute to the project or initiative. It's about finding the right fit for each collaboration and identifying how each person or team can bring value to the table. Collaboration with purpose is key – be clear on the outcome you’re expecting from working together
- We think differently to inspire innovation - If we keep doing the same things, we’ll keep getting the same result – diversity of thought enables creativity and accelerates business performance: encouraging people to innovate, sharing different perspectives, and exploring new approaches. We strive to foster an environment where ideas are valued and everyone feels empowered to share their perspectives and insights. We believe that the best way to solve problems and achieve success is by thinking outside the box and approaching challenges with fresh ideas and new perspectives. By thinking differently, we can uncover new opportunities and create unique solutions that set us apart from our competitors. We believe that innovation is key to staying ahead in today's fast-paced and ever-changing business landscape.
- We support each other to act courageously - Innovation often takes courage; being bold and taking calculated risks is critical to staying ahead of our competitors. To "act courageously" means to have the courage to take bold action in the face of uncertainty or adversity. It's about taking the initiative to pursue new ideas and opportunities, even when there's a risk involved. We believe that by taking risks, we can learn from our mistakes, grow and adapt to new challenges, and ultimately achieve greater success. Courage is different for each of us. For some people it’ll be taking responsibility; for others it’s letting others take responsibility. It may be speaking up, or allowing others to speak. In all cases, it’s being comfortable with feeling uncomfortable. We're all about taking risks and making things happen! It’s about having the guts to pursue bold ideas and take calculated risks, even when it's scary. We believe that by embracing innovation and not being afraid to make mistakes, we can learn and grow, and ultimately achieve success. So let's take that leap of faith, step out of our comfort zones, and make a difference!
- We own and implement the outcome for our colleagues, clients and investors - We believe that everyone should take ownership of their work and strive to deliver outstanding results. To "own it" means to take responsibility for your work and to hold yourself accountable for the outcomes. We encourage colleagues to take pride in their work and to treat every project as if it were their own. By taking ownership, we can ensure that our work is of the highest quality and that we are delivering on our promises. To "deliver" means to follow through on your commitments and to deliver results that exceed expectations. We believe that delivering excellence is not only important for our clients and customers but also for our team members. By setting high standards and striving for excellence, we can create a culture of success and continuous improvement, and a workplace culture that is focused on excellence and achievement.
