More value from existing customers.

Your customers can become our customers which in turn will increase your income stream. At the same time, our programs will further capture valuable, curated data on our collective customer borrowing performance that will illuminate future upsell and cross-sell opportunities for you with loans that are well priced for your bottom line.

Our bank partners generate incremental fee income from their own loan portfolios by offering Uptempo payment program solutions. They also receive lucrative fee income from the portfolios that we share with them.

Additionally, we identify lending opportunities for our bank partners from within our customer base, helping our bank partners find new customers.

In time, our bank partners will benefit from long-term deposits we attract for them, and various lending solutions they may be asked to participate in.

Uptempo™ virtual prepaid accounts (“Accounts”) are issued by MCB, member FDIC. Uptempo Marketing Corp. is a limited agent of MCB and is authorized to market and distribute the Uptempo™ Program on behalf of MCB.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR OPENING A PREPAID ACCOUNT: To help the federal government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the USA PATRIOT Act requires us to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens a prepaid Account.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU: When you open a prepaid Account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and your government-issued ID number. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying information. Your prepaid Account cannot be opened or available for use until it is activated and your identity has been verified. If you begin the verification process but are required to provide additional identifying information, the use of your prepaid Account will be subject to certain limitations.

The program is powered by Hank Payments. Your funds will be held at or transferred to Metropolitan Commercial Bank, an FDIC-insured institution. While there, your funds are insured up to $250,000 by the FDIC in the event Metropolitan Commercial Bank fails if specific deposit insurance requirements are met. FDIC insurance does not protect your funds in the event of Hank Payments’ failure or from the risk of theft or fraud. Additional information about deposit insurance is available on the FDIC’s website at https://www.fdic.gov/resources/deposit-insurance.
