How U.S. Bank Stays Close to Fintech and Customers

Shruti Patel from U.S. Bank explains how the bank stays close to the fintech market, partnering with innovators or building on their technology when it helps customers. Patel notes that U.S. Bank has not only partnered but also acquired capabilities when it made sense. Examples include TALIC, a point-of-sale solution the bank now pairs with its LO1 Merchant Acquiring offering, as well as Bento Spend Management, whose technology powers the recently launched U.S. Bank Spend Management platform.

Patel highlights how these moves translate into everyday value for small businesses. By coupling Bento’s tech with U.S. Bank’s small business cards, owners can track and control spending, issue employee cards, and set limits with less friction. Looking ahead, Patel says U.S. Bank will keep pursuing partnerships to meet evolving needs such as embedded payroll and embedded accounts payable and receivable, bringing modern fintech tools into the core banking experience for business customers.
