BLUE BELL, Pa., Nov. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rego Payment Architectures, Inc. (“REGO”) (OTCQB: RPMT) announced today that its leading white-label youth banking solution is now accessible through the Jack Henry™ digital banking platform.
REGO 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. Access to Jack Henry’s API, design, and authenticated frameworks has enabled REGO to directly integrate into the digital banking platform providing a seamless banking experience. This integration contributes to Jack Henry’s growing ecosystem of over 1,000 fintechs, providing approximately 7,500 financial institutions with relevant financial products and services for their accountholders.
As Generations Z and Alpha (youth aged five to 17) continue to grow rapidly and engage with finances earlier than ever, parents are seeking reliable tools to build their children’s financial literacy. For banks and credit unions, providing these resources presents a powerful way to attract deposits and build lasting customer loyalty. Through REGO, financial institutions can now deliver a secure, future-focused youth banking solution that supports the next generation's financial growth.
"We’re excited to collaborate with Jack Henry, a company equally committed to providing financial institutions with cutting-edge technology," said Peter S. Pelullo, CEO of REGO. "Our platform, rigorously certified to meet the highest standards of child data privacy at both state and federal levels, ensures peace of mind for financial institutions and families as they nurture the next generation of financially informed youth."
