ToggleNovember stands out with a notable rise in fintech IPOs
The month of November shone with a significant rise in initial public offerings in the FinTech sector. Despite a shortened trading week due to holidays, the FinTech IPO Index surged by 25.5%, culminating in a gain of 40.1% since the beginning of the year. Companies like Lemonade even surpassed expectations with an impressive increase of 170% in November.
The success of Lemonade is attributed to a 24% increase in active premiums, maintaining its revenue up by 19% for the year. Meanwhile, Sezzle showed a growth exceeding 101%, nearly doubling its quarterly performance compared to the previous year with an increased purchasing frequency from existing customers.
Fintech funding proves fruitful
The company MoneyLion is benefiting from a rise in its stock price of 91%, thanks to a successful refinancing with Silicon Valley Bank. This strategic maneuver, although premature compared to the 2026 deadline, allowed MoneyLion to secure improved terms for its senior loan.
Fintech innovations attract investors
In parallel, Affirm strengthened its market position by expanding its partnership with the travel agency Priceline, thus becoming the preferred deferred payment provider within Priceline Partner Solutions. This partnership opens opportunities for Priceline’s partner brands to offer Affirm during the checkout process, expanding the reach of BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later) solutions.
