The journey of the small business owner is often a lonely one. For many people, particularly first-time entrepreneurs, starting a small business can be overwhelming. But today, with the tools available, there has never been a better time to start a business. Having said that, most new small businesses don't make it to five years. What we need is a …

Rory O'Reilly of Knot on connecting cardholders to merchants 28:32

8d ago28:32

28:32

It is a simple problem that every card issuer has. You have issued a credit or debit card to a new customer, so how do you get them to actually use it? More than that, how do you encourage this customer to make this new card their primary payment card. My next guest on the Fintech One-on-One podcast is Rory O'Reilly, the CEO and Co-Founder of Knot.…

Jesus had some pretty specific and poetic instructions for how his followers should engage in the culture they found themselves in. However, we don't often take these instructions seriously and rather choose fight or flight instead of the hard work of being salt and light.By New Life Pismo

I have made no secret of my affection for earned wage access (EWA) as a product. It has been growing rapidly, particularly the last couple of years, as more consumers realize what a great tool it is. There have been several different approaches to implementing EWA from the major players in the space but no one has approached it the same way as Clai…

Today we start our summer book club reading through "What if Jesus was Serious?" by Skye Jethani.

We tend to like to categorize our lives into boxes of sacred and secular; often keeping separate our faith and church lives from our day to day roles in our jobs or schools or in the world.

The third enemy of our soul, the world, can be an upside-down place.

The secondary loan market has played an important role in the history of fintech lending.
