Provide named finalist of the 2024 Banking Tech Awards, Best Bank & Fintech Partnership category

The industry-leading financial services provider, based in Columbus, Ohio, was selected as a finalist in the 2024 Banking Tech Awards.

The industry-leading financial services provider, based in Columbus, Ohio, was selected as a finalist in the 2024 Banking Tech Awards. The awards recognize and celebrate achievements in the banking and fintech industry across the country. Finalists were selected by a panel of judges made up of industry experts, and winners were announced at the awards ceremony last night in New York City. Provide was named a finalist in the Best Bank & Fintech Partnership category.

Provide’s submission walked the panel through the company’s successes since its acquisition by Fifth Third Bank in August 2021. Since this acquisition, Provide has grown exponentially while maintaining a people-first culture that attracts the top talent in the industry and drives results for its customers.

In the last year, Provide:

Served more than 2,600 customers in all 50 states
Continued to expand financial services in the veterinary industry
Launched the Provide Card: the credit card built specifically for healthcare practice owners
Launched two new lending programs: SBA and Jumpstart Plus

“Being selected as a finalist of the 2024 Banking Tech Awards is an enormous honor for Provide. Our acquisition by Fifth Third Bank has been an incredible success story and an example of how a ‘best-of-both-worlds’ bank-fintech partnership can deliver a truly differentiated experience to customers,” said Provide CEO Andrew Bennett. “Provide’s vision is to enable healthcare providers to achieve their practice ownership dreams, realize financial independence, and improve the industry’s standard of care, and Fifth Third has powered that pursuit as the best home for Provide that our team could have ever imagined.”

Provide and Fifth Third continue to prove the advantages of bank-fintech partnerships and how they can benefit everyone involved. Thanks to this partnership, Provide has been able to take its products to the next level, increasing its impact and scalability, and further set itself apart from the competition.

“Fifth Third and Provide are a true success story of a bank and fintech partnership that leverages the best of both companies,” said Fifth Third Bank Chief Operating Officer Jamie Leonard. “Provide brought a fresh perspective and industry-leading innovative products to the Bank while Fifth Third’s treasury management and payments products have been extremely valuable to our shared customer base. Together, we will continue to innovate on bringing holistic financial solutions to healthcare providers.”
