Huge news for @itaidamti and @somdoron and the Unit team - awesome to see this milestone hit the press. Also a good time to mention that I'll actually be joining the Unit team to rethink how businesses easily add financial services to their products.
.@unit_co_'s $100M raise at a $1.2B valuation is further evidence of how hot the BaaS sector remains. Last week, I also wrote about Brazilian infra startup Dock raising $110M at a valuation of over $1.5B. @insightpartners led Unit's latest round.

This round is a major validation of the massive opportunity for financial infrastructure to enable embedded banking experiences for fintechs and non-fintechs alike. And it's also a signal that Unit's unique all-in-one BaaS platform approach is resonating.
Building banking is hard (as I've pointed out before). But while BaaS seems crowded, when you deep dive, Unit stands out with its full stack & full service approach. It actually makes embedded banking as accessible as adding software to your stack.
