Bond

Bond Financial Technologies is an enterprise-grade banking-as-a-service (BaaS) and embedded finance platform that lets software companies and fintechs embed financial products directly into their applications through a single REST API. The platform covers consumer and commercial deposit accounts, credit-builder and secured charge cards, debit and virtual card issuing and management, money movement (ACH and account-to-account transfers, external-account linking via Plaid), a transaction ledger, statements, identity verification (KYC, KYB, and beneficial-owner verification powered by Persona), webhook event subscriptions, and a full sandbox with simulation endpoints for authorizations, settlements, and KYC/KYB scenarios. Bond exposes API-key authenticated endpoints under api.bond.tech with pre-integrated bank partnerships. Bond was acquired by FIS in June 2023; its developer documentation remains live at docs.bond.tech. Surfaced originally as a portfolio company of Canaan Partners and enriched here from Bond's public developer documentation.

Bond publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, United States, Banking as a Service, Embedded Finance, and Fintech.

The Bond catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Bond’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, authentication, changelog, and 21 more developer resources.
