  • The SoFi Cross-Buy Engine Fuels Amazing Growth
    Jun 27 2026
    SoFi is not winning by cross-selling harder. It is building a bank where members reach for the next product on their own.In this episode, Jim Marous breaks down how SoFi moved from a single-product student loan company to a full-service digital bank with a powerful customer growth engine. The key insight is the shift from cross-sell to cross-buy: instead of pushing another product, SoFi creates daily engagement, useful experiences, and timely options that make members want to expand the relationship.The discussion explores SoFi’s 43% product growth from existing customers, its national bank charter, its use of Galileo and Technisys, and the behavioral design principles behind its member experience. For banks and credit unions, the challenge is clear: the future of growth may depend less on selling harder and more on being useful when customers are ready to act.A must-listen for leaders focused on digital banking, customer engagement, fintech strategy, and relationship growth.

  • The Best Banking Innovation Doesn't Need a Huge Budget
    Jun 24 2026
    The best banking innovation isn't about budget. It's about the distance to the customer.Jim Marous unpacks the 16th Edition Innovation in Retail Banking Report from Infosys Finacle and Qorus and explains why most retail banking innovation never reaches scale. Only 31% of initiatives are deployed at scale and delivering, and fewer than 4% of banks have agentic AI running at full scale. The innovations that win share one trait. They become invisible, embedded so naturally into how customers get paid and save that no one even notices the technology. That advantage comes from proximity to the customer moment, not spending power, which is why community banks and credit unions can out-innovate institutions many times their size.Banking Transformed is hosted by Jim Marous, Co-Publisher of The Financial Brand and Owner and Publisher of the Digital Banking Report, with new episodes published multiple times weekly.

    Jun 23 2026

Boyle is direct that the technology was never the obstacle. The people were.In this episode:• Why WaFd gave its bankers AI tools and data instead of trying to replace them• The moment skeptical bankers flip from resistance to adoption• Why every banking problem does not need a large language modelRecorded at nSight, sponsored by nCino, with research access linked below.
