ieDigital, a leader in digital banking software in the UK, has today announced it has acquired Connect FSS, the US-based digital banking technology provider.
ieDigital is a major player in the UK fintech market, providing digital software solutions for over 50 financial services businesses. ieDigital is the chosen partner to four of the UK’s five largest banks and has a proven track record of delivery of digital platforms across a broad range of financial products. Connect FSS is a preeminent digital banking provider, currently serving credit unions in the United States.
The acquisition follows a detailed search by ieDigital over the past year for a business partner that can help the company accelerate its growth plans and cement its position as a leading UK fintech player with international market reach.
The acquisition will bring together the expertise of both companies, signifying a shared vision to deliver new and improved digital software solutions and exceptional customer service to financial services firms and credit unions.
For the marketplace the acquisition delivers clear benefits that include:
Jerry Young, CEO of ieDigital and Grant Parry, President & CEO of Connect FSS, will work in synergy to lead the two businesses and continue to deliver unrivalled service and solutions to both customers and partners.
The two companies will sit as part of a new ieDigital Group (the Group), where Young will become Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Parry will become Executive Vice President (EVP) of Strategy.
At this time, both companies will retain their separate brand names in their respective markets, with separate websites. Connect FSS will also remain a Credit Union Service Organisation (CUSO).
Jerry Young, CEO of ieDigital, commented:
“We’re very excited about the growth opportunity this acquisition will bring. Joining forces with Connect FSS will enable us to support a broader range of customers in different geographies that we wouldn’t have otherwise been able to reach, and strengthen our technology with insight from our new colleagues in the US. We look forward to seeing the benefits that will come with today’s deal.”
Grant Parry, President & CEO of Connect FSS, added:
“Partnering with ieDigital is a natural next step in our evolution as a business. There is a clear synergy between our two cultures, and in terms of the technology and skillsets that we share. We’re enthusiastic about what we will be able to deliver with ieDigital’s insight and experience in fintech. Our joint ambition is to provide excellent customer service and tailored solutions to clients, and we are confident we can further achieve this with today’s news.”
