Partnership brings consumer and business account opening and lending capabilities — digitally and branch-assisted — to Allied’s network of more than 6,000 financial institutions

MIAMI, Fl. & CARMEL, Ind. – 26, March – Loquat Inc., a fintech innovator enabling banks and credit unions to offer smart consumer and business banking, and Allied Solutions, one of the largest providers of insurance, lending, risk management, and data-driven solutions to financial institutions in North America, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver end-to-end digital onboarding and lending across Allied’s network of financial institution clients.

Through the partnership, Allied’s network of banks and credit unions will gain access to Loquat’s modular platform — enabling frictionless consumer and business account opening, automated lending, virtual debit and credit card issuance, AI-driven strategic insights, and back-office workflow management. Accounts can be opened fully digitally or with branch assistance, delivering a true omnichannel experience for customers and members.

Allied Solutions reaches financial institutions that are ready to move — and their clients deserve a banking experience that matches how they live and work. Together, we can make omnichannel digital banking the standard, not the exception, for community banks and credit unions across the country.

— Zarina Tsomaeva, CEO and Founder, Loquat Inc.
