Excited to announce that @KnotAPIs is now collaborating with @PayPal. With Knot’s CardSwitcher™, PayPal users will soon be able to seamlessly add their PayPal branded cards as a payment method across their favorite merchants—making paying with PayPal easier. From day one, Knot has been building the merchant connectivity layer, removing friction from payments. Everyone wins. Consumers get access to fast, efficient checkouts and merchants can see higher conversion rates with fewer abandoned carts. Excited to team up with PayPal to bring even more innovation to digital payments. More Knot updates coming soon!

We’re excited to announce that @KnotAPIs is now live with @CashApp. The Cash App Card is one of the largest debit card programs in the United States. With Knot's CardSwitcher™, Cash App cardholders can instantly add their card across the merchants they use most, including Amazon, Apple, Walmart, Uber, and 100+ more, without ever leaving the app. Cash App has always focused on creating intuitive financial experiences. Knot builds on that by driving activation and spend for Cash App, reducing churn and abandoned carts for merchants, and giving users a frictionless way to use their Cash App Card. We’re proud to power an even more seamless Cash App Card experience and excited for what’s ahead. More to come.

I’m excited to have guest written an essay in this week's Fintech Biz Weekly by @mikulaja on what I believe is the next major layer in payments. Sharing an excerpt below👇 - full essay, along with Jason’s latest work, is in the comments: Payments has had two great infrastructure eras. The first was the network era. American Express was founded in 1850. Visa traces its roots to BankAmericard in 1958. Mastercard began as the Interbank Card Association in 1966. Over decades, these companies built the rails that move money between banks, merchants, and consumers. The second was the bank connectivity era. Finicity, a Mastercard Company and Yodlee were both founded in 1999. MX came in 2010. Plaid followed in 2013. That generation made bank accounts readable, programmable, and usable inside modern software. Without that layer, most fintech apps would still be asking users to confirm micro deposits, or manually prove their financial lives. Those two layers are now obvious. They have standards, incumbents, regulators, public companies, major exits, and strategic importance across the entire financial system. But the next layer is already taking shape, despite being under-discussed: the layer where the consumer–merchant relationship actually lives. It sits between consumers and the merchants they interact with every day. Not just when they pay, but when they buy, return, update credentials, subscribe, cancel, reorder, redeem rewards, track deliveries, manage travel, change preferences, and maintain the digital relationships that increasingly define modern commerce. I call it the merchant connectivity layer.

i know of a niche infra tool that plugs into card neobanks and connects to users’ external bank accounts via Plaid it identifies all active subscriptions and automatically switches the billing over to the neobank’s card, replacing the user’s existing card on file this can increase card spend by 20–30%, making it an A tier offer integrate the tool and immediately boost interchange revenue by 20–30%

I couldn't be more excited to introduce @KnotAPIs newest product: Detect Detect gives Knot customers instant visibility into the accounts their users already have, without any user input. By passing Knot a user's email or phone # in the background, Detect returns a view of a user’s existing accounts, unlocking a completely new layer of intelligence at the very start of the user journey: • Make onboarding feel instant and personalized • Surface offers that actually match where users already engage • Prompt upgrades and actions at the right moment • Strengthen fraud detection with real account-level signals • Unlock a new layer of competitive intelligence For issuers, that means better intelligence, unique signals, and a cheat sheet for next-best actions. For merchants, it means a deeper understanding of their customers from the first interaction. If you’re already working with Knot, reach out, and we’ll get you enabled (API docs below).

No two days are the same @KnotAPIs, which is a big part of what makes it so enjoyable. One of my favorite parts is working closely with our partners and building alongside them every day. It’s always fun to create something thoughtful and share it with the people we’re building for. The team and I are incredibly grateful for all of you. Thank you for being part of this journey; I hope you enjoy these small tokens of appreciation!

I’m excited to announce @KnotAPIs latest product: Account Upgrader. Knot started with a simple idea: connect users directly to the merchants they already use and make it effortless to set a card as the default. Account Upgrader builds on the same merchant connectivity layer and extends the moment further. With Account Upgrader, users can seamlessly opt into and upgrade to premium merchant subscription tiers directly within the flow, powered by Knot. For Issuers, this means more activation, more spend, and stronger retention. For Merchants, this means a new growth surface at a moment of high intent. We could not be more excited to continue building the merchant connectivity layer.

Pretty interesting for @KnotAPIs 👀

Plaid CEO @zachperret says AI agents will rely on credit cards, not stablecoins, for payments in the near term: "For as far as I can see, which in this environment is maybe a year or something like that, I think agents using credit cards is going to be by far the primary thing that happens." "The reason for that is merchants accept credit cards. Merchants don’t accept stablecoins, for the most part, for most of the things that a consumer wants to do." "Now, over time, certain types of merchants might start to accept stablecoins. The question is: will the companies that care about making credit cards really easy be able to make them sufficiently easy in the amount of time before merchants actually start thinking about accepting stablecoins?" "And my hunch is, you’ve seen, I think @tryramp actually launched an agentic credit card... I know there’s a bunch of other agentic credit cards that are out there, and I can’t imagine that there will not be 5,000 YC companies launching agentic-focused credit cards soon." "So I think we will see more and more options pop up. That’s not to say I’m not a believer in stablecoins. I think it’d be super cool, but I just don’t think it’s realistic in a short time frame."
