What Synctera is
Synctera provides infrastructure for companies building and operating banking and embedded-finance products, and for sponsor banks managing those programs. Its APIs support core banking, card processing, and end-user onboarding for bank accounts, card programs, and money movement. Synctera Console handles account and end-user management, cases, insights, and reconciliation. Synctera Ledger stores end-user, account, and transaction data and supports automated interest calculations and statements. A white-label UX suite supplies pre-built components for onboarding, account and card management, and payments. Compliance capabilities include access to KYC, KYB, AML, and watchlist services, transaction monitoring, and workflow support. The partner ecosystem lists providers such as Plaid, Mastercard, Visa, Marqeta, Socure, and MX. Synctera’s Trust Center lists SOC 2 and PCI DSS 4.0.1 compliance resources and reports, while operational support covers disputes, KYC reviews, and fraud issues. Pricing is on request, and production API access depends on the Synctera products a FinTech subscribes to. Banking services come from partner banks; Synctera is not a bank.
