Brookfield-based financial technology services company Fiserv Inc. acquired a Silicon Valley-based digital card services platform, the company announced today.
Financial terms of the deal to acquire California-based Ondot Systems were not disclosed. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2021.
Founded in 2011, Ondot provides more than 4,500 banks and credit unions with Card App, a digital card management platform that drives cardholder engagement. Ondot says it processes more than 1 billion transactions per month and provides digital capabilities for over 30 million cards.
