This staff downsizing comes on top of other cost-cutting measures and service provider rationalisation, the firm said. 

BM Technologies anticipates the plan to result in $18m in annualised cost reductions and save around $15m in annualised costs this year.

The company expects to incur between $1.5m and $3m in connection with its plan, with the majority of it being incurred in the first quarter of 2023.

BM Technologies chair, CEO and founder Luvleen Sidhu said: “The fintech Industry is still in its early stages and continues to grow, but market dynamics are substantially different than they were a year ago. Companies across the spectrum must adjust to new market realities including the current high-interest rate and inflationary environment.
