Galileo Financial Technologies Partners with Plata Card to Support Credit Card Payments
13 de junho de 2023
Mexico City, 13 June 2023 - Galileo Financial Technologies, LLC, a leading independent financial technology company owned and operated by SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFI), announced a new partnership with Plata in Mexico to process payments and support their transactions. Plata Card is the newest credit card in the Mexican market, offering advanced technology and security, rewarding customers with up to 5% cashback on their chosen purchases, and providing a payment period of up to 60 days.
Galileo now supports Plata Card in transaction and payment processing with the highest level of innovation, using modern and open APIs. Galileo provides Plata with a flexible, secure, scalable, and fully integrated platform that helps Plata Card operate efficiently and secure transactions.
The alliance between Galileo and Plata offers customers a combination of simplicity, convenience, and innovation when it comes to making transactions, managing finances, or seeking customer support.
Mexican consumers are open and eager to adopt financial innovations, and speed to market is a key component of success in maintaining a healthy portfolio of products. However, often innovation is stalled or delayed in the development process, which is why Neri Tollardo, CEO of Plata, and his team opted for a collaborative approach with Galileo. Tollardo states that while the company and product are new to the market, he and his team are intimately familiar with the challenges associated with launching such an ambitious project like Plata.
With the launch of this new card, Plata Card is redefining how Mexicans interact with money and laying the foundation for a more inclusive and prosperous future.
"With the launch of this new card, Plata Card is reshaping the way Mexicans interact with money and laying the foundation for a more inclusive and prosperous future. Based on our extensive industry experience and after evaluating providers in the market, it was a clear decision to work with Galileo as our technology partner," added Tollardo.
"Technology is key to achieving innovation," said Jackson, "but we should never underestimate the value of fostering trust and collaboration among partners to achieve our joint goals of bringing cutting-edge solutions to the Latin American market."

A Galileo da SoFi é o futuro das finanças integradas?
O setor de finanças integradas está passando por um crescimento sem precedentes, com projeções de uma taxa de crescimento anual composta (CAGR) de 16,8% até 2029. Liderando esse avanço está a Galileo, a divisão de serviços financeiros B2B da SoFi Technologies.
Recompensas no débito disparam à medida que os consumidores mudam suas preferências de gasto
Programas de recompensas no débito, que foram significativamente reduzidos — em até 50% — logo após a Emenda Durbin limitar as taxas sobre pagamentos com cartão de débito, estão ganhando novo fôlego. Esse retorno está sendo impulsionado pelo crescimento contínuo do débito como método de pagamento preferido.
A Galileo transforma a SoFi na espinha dorsal das finanças integradas
A Galileo, divisão de serviços financeiros B2B da SoFi Technologies, Inc. (SOFI), está se consolidando como um dos principais motores de crescimento no mercado de finanças integradas em rápida expansão.

Os cartões virtuais estão ganhando espaço. Veja o que os bancos precisam fazer a seguir
Essa mudança destaca o crescente conforto com os pagamentos digitais desde o início. Mas, embora o uso esteja aumentando, muitos bancos e instituições financeiras ainda têm dificuldade em explicar por que os cartões virtuais são importantes e como os consumidores podem se beneficiar deles.
Troca de Pagamento com Um Toque Dá Vantagem aos Bancos na Primazia da Conta
Prashant Shah, vice-presidente de gerenciamento de produto na Galileo Financial Technologies, desafiou o público da PYMNTS a lembrar de uma experiência recente de pagamento de contas, em que atualizar uma assinatura significava ter que correr atrás da Netflix, da Amazon — até mesmo da companhia de energia local — para acessar cada site individualmente e atualizar os dados de pagamento.
