Joe Keeley is the CEO & Co-Founder of the embedded Fintech company Justifi.ai . He shares how went from being a hockey-playing nanny to leading a fintech orchestration platform that helps software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms add value and accelerate potential revenue streams. According to Joe, the fintech market is enormous and diverse, with thousands of vertical SaaS platforms, and there can be thousands of winners because there are many different ways to slice and dice the market.Joe Keeley's entrepreneurial journey started with founding College Nannies and Sitters and Tutors, a large in-home childcare and tutoring company, before moving into Fintech. Justifi simplifies the complex and fragmented Fintech industry for SaaS platforms by providing a payment and fintech orchestration platform and an engaged fintech team. SaaS platforms often lack expertise in fintech, and Justifi fills that gap by providing an extension of their team, including a chief payment officer, to help them execute on fintech solutions.To successfully monetize FinTech, software companies must start the journey today and look to the future when making integration decisions. They must also focus on the user experience and not just on monetizing funds flow. Justifi believes that by partnering with providers, companies can take full advantage of FinTech while still focusing on their core vertical SaaS platform. Justifi sees exciting opportunities in stored payment values and a focus on the user experience, and they want to help platforms capture more value from their FinTech transactions.In conclusion, Justifi's unique approach to helping vertical SaaS platforms add value to their company is worth exploring. Joe Keeley's experience transitioning from a different company to a fintech company provides valuable insights. Don't make the mistake of waiting to begin monetizing with FinTech or trying to build everything yourself. Instead, contact Justifi.ai to understand your business and build a strategic FinTech map. Remember, there's a tailwind behind you, and Justifi can help accelerate your potential for success.Things that we dive into on in this episode . 👨‍💼 From hockey-playing nanny to CEO and Co-Founder of Justifi, Joe Keeley knows what it takes to become a successful FinTech company. Justifi helps vertical SaaS platforms add value and accelerate potential revenue streams with their payment and FinTech orchestration platform and engaged FinTech team.🌐 The fintech market is enormous and diverse, with thousands of vertical SaaS platforms, but there can be thousands of winners because there are many different ways to slice and dice the market.💳 Payments are the most commonly sold and purchased FinTech product, but Justifi believes that vertical SaaS platforms should keep the lion's share of the value of funds flow within their ecosystem. By monetizing payments based on the payment's cost rather than the transaction's size, SaaS platforms can increase revenue potential.Also, watch the entire episode on youtube. https://youtu.be/wzhvACVd3UwLinks:JustifiWebsite: justifi.aiLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/justifi-paymentsTwitter: https://twitter.com/_JustiFiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/justifi.ai/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@justifi4326Joe KeeleyLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joekeeley/Fintech Confidential FOLLOW, LIKE & SUBSCRIBEYouTube: https://youtube.com/@fintechconfidentialPodcast: http://podcast.fintechconfidential.comNewsletter: http://access.fintechconfidential.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintechconfidentialTwitter: https://twitter.com/FTconfidentialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fintechconfidentialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fintechconfidentialSupporting PartnersSupport is provided by the Vital Credit Card.Make a statement in your wallet with a sleek Metal credit card that pays you cashback when you share and spend responsibly while it helps improve your credit health.

Join Tedd Huff of Fintech Confidential and Bruce Burke of Bullet Point Bulletins as they discuss the latest developments in the world of fintech and web3 technology on this week's episode of the Weekly Wrap-Up of Bullet Point Bulletins. The FDIC seized control of Silicon Valley Bank and the future seemed very dismal, but following this episode later that evening the Wall Street Journal said the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve and the made a joint decision to make good on all deposits made. This was basically decided upon to restore the public’s faith in the banking system in the U.S.Tedd and Bruce discuss the many implications that surrounded the weekend-long banking crisis. The Feds hands seemed tied in this decision. Not stemming this tsunami would have lead to much deeper and long term problems.Inflation, mistrust, collapses and cryptocurrency are all playing hell with the economy and financial systems. People are beginning to look to alternatives to keep their hard earned money safe. There are many different aspects of the monetary systems and the startup scene in the valley discussed, but ultimately the government had to save it or else the contagion could have had a huge domino effect across the world - from the 16th largest bank in the United States.Oh and Bruce and Tedd also talk about the mainstream adoption of NFT’s from both Starbucks customers and a forthcoming announcement expected from Amazon this month about a Digital Marketplace. We also discuss how the new Coinbase Wallet-as-a-Service is also bringing customers easily onboard to apps like Floor, and Token Proof. It seems there is a lot of simplifying of Web3 standards, but at the same time kind of making them a hybrid Web2.5. At least it’s a step in the right direction. Or is it? Will the interoperability of Web3 ever be realized, it seems each new project has a proprietary blockchain, token or wallet technology of its own. Will the Web3 ideals be discarded and replaced by Web2 standards - or will the utopian ideals be upheld by the devout and the Web2.5 projects shunned by the true believers in the real Web3?

proofsSnoop Dogg to Launch 'Shiller': The Live Streaming App Where Everything is Shoppable$33 billion fintech giant Revolut reports first-ever annual profitRevolut, a fintech giant, reported its first-ever annual profit in 2021, with revenues of £636.2 million ($767.1 million) and a pre-tax profit of £59.1 million.The company's success was due to the growth in subscriptions to its paid packages and overall app usage, along with diligent cost control and a diversified business.Revolut expects revenue growth of more than 30% to £850 million in 2022.The company competes with other digital banks such as Wise, Monzo, and Starling.Revolut has expanded into overseas markets such as the U.S., Brazil, Mexico, and India and has over 25 million users worldwide.The company has been pursuing a banking license in the U.K. for the past two years to source more income from lending activity.Revolut faced concerns from U.K. regulators over the robustness of its internal financial controls and an aggressive working culture, which led to departures of key regulatory and compliance executives.Revolut's crypto business deteriorated sharply, accounting for only 5% to 10% of sales in 2022, down from roughly a third in 2021.As a privately held firm, Revolut is not required to share frequent quarterly reports.Revolut hopes to obtain its U.K. banking license "very soon" and secure external funding.Blockchain Founders Fund raises $75M to encourage Web3 mass adoptionBlockchain Founders Fund has raised $75 million in a fundraising round to support the adoption of Web3 and blockchain technology.The fund will focus on supporting high-potential early-stage pre-seed and seed projects that encourage the mass adoption of Web3 and blockchain technology.The fund has already invested in over 100 startups, including Altered State Machine, Splinterlands, GRID, Krayon, and Magna.The fund plans to potentially spread its investments across more than 200 companies within the

pullback in venture capital spending by investors in Q4 2022, investors are still looking to bankroll blockchain-based technologies, applications, and startups.The Blockchain Founders Fund leverages its industry connections, including leading institutions and investors in the space, to help its portfolio companies succeed.Gaming engine Unity adds MetaMask functionality among new Web3 toolsUnity has added a "Decentralization" category page in its asset store, featuring 13 "vetted" crypto platforms, including MetaMask, Solana, and Tezos, to assist developers interested in merging decentralization into their projects.MetaMask's software development kit (SDK) was added to help developers enable users to connect their MetaMask wallet to "any game developed on Unity."The integrations will allow developers to modify the "models of ownership" in games and enable players to create, earn or acquire in-game resources, which can be subsequently traded or sold.A recent DappRadar report revealed that gamers made up nearly half (48%) of all blockchain activity in January 2023.Increasing mainstream coverage of announcements and news related to Web3 gaming contributes to a rise in activity.Blockchain gaming is already "a vertical" in the traditional industry, and it will bring "more adoption" to Web3 games, which will "become mainstream."The "major challenge" with blockchain gaming is getting "casual gamers" into the market because of the perception that blockchain games are of "inferior quality."Polygon launches decentralized ID product powered by ZK proofsPolygon has launched a zero-knowledge decentralized identity solution, Polygon ID, to the public.Polygon ID was first launched in a closed-environment to select builders nearly a year ago.The service uses zero-knowledge proofs (ZK proofs) to allow users to verify their identity online without revealing sensitive information.Polygon claims to be the first ZK-based digital ID tool that allows users to hold credentials locally on handheld devices such as smartphones.The public release introduces four new tools to the Polygon ID toolset for developers to integrate identity solutions into their applications.Users can produce zero-knowledge proofs using off-chain credentials to interact with smart contracts and verify information on-chain.Multiple Web3 projects, including Kaleido, Fractal, and Collab.Land, have committed to integrating Polygon ID upon launch.The co-founder of Polygon ID, David Schwartz, said the product was built on the latest decentralized identity standards.Other Web3 projects, such as The Sandbox and Guild.xyz, are also in the process of integrating Polygon ID.Polygon is a suite of blockchain protocols for developers built to scale Ethereum, including Layer-2s (zero-knowledge), sidechains, hybrids, and app-specific.Snoop Dogg to Launch 'Shiller': The Live Streaming App Where Everything is ShoppableSnoop Dogg and UK tech entrepreneur Sam
