We’ve been obsessed with new fintech products since before the term was invented. This constantly updated article tracks the biggest and most important new products released worldwide by financial technology companies, along with banks, credit unions, investment advisors, insurance companies, credit card issuers and payment providers. We’ll also link to important demos, podcasts and YouTube videos. And since we can’t resist a good metric, vanity or otherwise, we’ll include customer, dollar or other significant milestones. However, we’ll refrain from listing funding rounds since they are covered widely online.
