SOFI TECH PLATFORM CONTINUES GROWTH IN Q1, EYES NEW SEGMENTS

SoFi Tech Platform Continues Growth in Q1, Eyes New Segments

April 29, 2025

Galileo Financial Technologies tallied 158.4 million total enabled accounts in the first quarter of 2025, a 5 percent year-over-year increase from 151.0 million in Q1 of 2024, Galileo parent company SoFi Technologies announced in its most recent earnings report, released April 29, 2025.

SoFi’s Technology Platform segment—which comprises Galileo and the Technisys cloud-based core banking services platform—posted net revenue of $103.4 million during the quarter, representing a 10 percent annual increase, the company reported.

During SoFi’s earnings call, CEO Anthony Noto highlighted the Technology Platform’s sustained organic growth, while also noting the company’s strategic push to broaden the market for the segment beyond traditional financial services clients–citing a major partnership struck in Q1 with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts for a first-of-its-kind debit rewards card.   

“Recognizing the longer lead times associated with large-scale core banking conversions and consolidation among smaller fintech clients, we found innovative ways to broaden our client base,” Noto said of the Wyndham deal. “Later this year, we expect to launch similar co-brand debit card programs with other travel and hospitality companies, further expanding our footprint among consumer brands,” he added. 

SoFi also continued international expansion efforts for its Technology Platform in Q1, recently signing a deal with Mercantil Banco, which offers personal and business banking services in Panama. The bank will utilize SoFi’s Cyberbank Digital banking platform, further extending SoFi’s reach in Latin America, Noto said.

Looking ahead, the SoFi CEO expressed confidence in the Technology Platform’s continued growth trajectory.

“We are pleased with the demand from new client opportunities for the tech platform business and expect these wins and others in the RFP process to have an impact on our revenue in 2026 and beyond,” Noto said.
