LEHI, Utah and DALLAS, Feb. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MX, the financial data platform and leader in modern connectivity, announced today that Deposits.com, a trailblazing financial technology and customer experience platform that "makes money more awesome," has chosen MX for account linking, personal financial management, insights, and embedded financial wellness products. This partnership will level the playing field for community banks, credit unions, and community developers seeking financial innovation and inclusion.

"Partnering with MX is transformative in advancing our ongoing mission of financial inclusion for the underbanked and underserved," said Deposits.com CEO, Joseph Akintolayo. "Our goal is to eliminate the barriers to entry for digital banking, deliver exceptional experiences with money, and reshape the banking access narrative for underserved communities. As a Black founder, I celebrate Black History all year with a passion to ignite our financial futures. Our partnership with MX moves this future into the present."

According to the FDIC's How America Banks biennial survey, the average percentage of unbanked minority households is significantly higher than non-minority unbanked households — and as high as 13% and 14% in the Latino/Hispanic and Black American communities. Deposits.com, a member of the fintech equality coalition and African American credit union coalition, empowers community banks, credit unions, and community developers access to compete, without compromise, with national brands in the markets they serve.

"By creating a digital banking experience that will provide accurate, personalized financial advice for Black American and Latino communities, we're furthering the advancement of financial inclusion, a joint mission of MX and Deposits.com," said Jane Barratt, Chief Advocacy Officer at MX.
