Partner banks and credit unions can engage and retain a new generation of consumers by offering fractional shares of stock as rewards for everyday debit card activity.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bits of Stock announced today that its Stock Rewards Checking Account is now accessible through the Jack Henry digital banking platform Banno.

Bits of Stock leveraged the Banno Digital Toolkit, the same set of APIs the Banno Digital Platform is built on, to embed its technology into the digital experiences offered by community and regional financial institutions. OMB Bank, headquartered in Springfield, Mo., was the first community financial institution to integrate with Bits of Stock powered by the Jack Henry platform.

Access to Jack Henry’s API, design and authenticated frameworks has enabled Bits of Stock to directly integrate into the digital banking platform, providing a seamless banking experience. This integration contributes to Jack Henry’s growing ecosystem of more than 950 fin-techs, providing approximately 7,500 financial institutions with relevant financial products and services for their account holders.

Bits of Stock enables community financial institutions and credit unions to offer customer rewards in the form of fractional shares of popular publicly traded stocks. The company’s mission is to empower its partners to engage and build loyalty with younger generations through stock ownership. Similar to a cash back rewards program, the award-winning Stock Rewards Checking Account is embedded in the financial institution’s digital banking experience and rewards debit cardholders with fractional shares of their active stock pick with every swipe.

“There is so much synergy for Jack Henry and Bits of Stock,” said Arash Asady, CEO of Bits of Stock. “Both companies are committed to finding innovative ways to empower financial services for consumers at scale.”
