Unit

Embedded finance platform for adding banking, cards, and lending to any product.

Overview


Unit is a banking-as-a-service platform exposing deposit accounts, debit cards, payments, and lending through one API, with a partner bank holding the deposits.

It covers account opening with KYC and KYB, card issuance in virtual and physical form, ACH, wire, and cheque payments, and a real-time ledger with webhooks. Because a partner bank holds customer funds, the deposit relationship and its reconciliation model sit with that bank rather than with Unit.

Common use cases


  • Add a deposit account to an existing product
  • Issue virtual and physical debit cards
  • Move money by ACH, wire, or cheque
  • Run onboarding checks before opening an account

Key features


  • Embedded bank accounts with FDIC insurance pass-through
  • Custom card issuance (virtual and physical)
  • ACH, wire, and check payment capabilities
  • Loan origination and credit product management
  • White-label banking with branded mobile app
  • Compliance-ready KYC/KYB onboarding flows
  • Real-time ledger and transaction webhooks
  • Partner bank network for national coverage
