Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® (NASDAQ: JKHY) today announced the acquisition of Geezeo, a Boston-based provider of retail and business digital financial management solutions.
According to Ron Moses, Vice President of Jack Henry & Associates and General Manager of Consumer and Commercial Solutions, "Consumers and businesses are relying on digital technologies now more than ever, and Jack Henry is committed to ensuring our clients are future-ready with personalized, seamless and appropriately simple digital banking solutions. Geezeo takes personal financial management (PFM) to the next level, using relevant data to create meaningful interactions between financial institutions and accountholders. The result is better control for consumers and businesses over their daily and long-term finances so they can achieve greater financial confidence. We've been strong business partners with Geezeo for years, and we're excited to have them join Jack Henry, bringing their outstanding technology and talent to continue enhancing our digital platform."
Founded in 2006, Geezeo has evolved from a white label PFM provider to a critical fintech partner of financial institutions, core processors, and complementary digital banking solutions. By processing, augmenting and storing millions of transactions, Geezeo now occupies a key role with their clients as a critical data partner. Geezeo's open and user-centric Application Programming Interface (API) allows for flexible integration within most FIs' online and mobile banking environments. By integrating seamlessly and invisibly, financial institutions can maintain their brand's look and feel, creating differentiated digital banking experiences that translate into higher revenue opportunities and increased customer engagement.
Shawn Ward, CEO and co-founder of Geezeo, said, "We've already enjoyed a long relationship with Jack Henry & Associates, so we're thrilled by this acquisition. We look forward to what comes next as Jack Henry continues to build best-in-class digital platforms for financial institutions."
Geezeo's solutions will be sold to Jack Henry's core bank and credit union clients and to the non-core clients supported by its ProfitStars® division.
