Market · Fintech & infrastructure

Reviewed. Approved. On the record.

Heads of payments, risk and treasury ignore vendor sequences, and every public appearance goes through compliance. They accept an interview built for that review: questions in advance, clips approved by the guest, nothing published without sign-off. We run the process and hand you the conversations as pipeline.

Fintech lead generation built for compliance review.

Our fintech lead generation invites payments, risk, compliance and finance leaders to interviews with questions shared in advance and clips approved before anything airs.

// your_buyers

The whole committee, one guest at a time.

Fintech deals rarely have one buyer. We source every seat that signs off and invite them across a quarter, so the committee knows your host before the RFP.

[01] titleswho signs

Seats on the committee

  • CFO, Controller, VP Treasury
  • Head of Payments, CTO, VP Engineering
  • CRO, Head of Compliance, Head of Financial Crime
  • Vendor-risk and procurement leads, second wave
[02] institutionswho can pay

Institutions that can pay

  • Banks and credit unions, $1B–$50B in assets
  • Fintechs from Series B: lenders, processors, sponsor banks
  • Insurers and B2B platforms with embedded finance
  • Your ACV $15k+; six-figure infrastructure deals fit best
[03] triggerswhy now

Triggers worth a call

  • Core or ledger migration announced
  • New sponsor-bank or processor partnership
  • New CRO, CFO or Head of Payments in seat
  • Real-time payments or open banking work on the roadmap

Map the committee before the RFP.

Question five, "When a decision like that comes up, whose phone rings first?", names the approvers. We invite the next seat from that answer, so the risk lead and CFO know your host before procurement opens a review.

// why_invites_work

A stage their compliance team can clear.

To a regulated executive, cold email is a risk: unknown sender, unknown claims. An invitation with a review process attached is a request they can approve.

[01]clearable

Visibility they can clear

Bank and fintech executives need approval to speak in public. We send topic, questions and release terms up front, so their comms team signs off before the recording.

in: brief + questions → out: guest cleared to record
[02]peer_credibility

Peers, not vendor claims

Your host talks with a Head of Payments about their cutover, not your product. Other buyers hear expertise from a peer instead of a sales deck.

in: 1 episode → out: clips the guest approved
[03]fewer_cold_starts

Context before the first meeting

When the committee has met your host and the pre-interview has named the approvers, the first sales meeting starts with context. In CF-03 the average cycle ran 38 days against a 94-day baseline.

Example show concepts

Fictional. Each keeps the conversation on the guest's work, which is what makes it approvable.

// objections

Compliance questions, answered first.

Read the program FAQ →

"Compliance will never approve unscripted conversations."

They approve the format, the question bank and the invitation copy before day 18, and every episode is reviewed before publishing. Regulated-industry workflows are standard.

"Legal has to sign off on anything that airs."

They do, and so does the guest. Guests approve their clips and nothing airs without sign-off from both sides. Episode review runs alongside new recordings, so the invitation calendar never stalls while legal reads a cut.

"Bank executives won't go on a podcast."

Senior buyers turn down pitches, not platforms. Topic and questions arrive in advance, so their comms team can clear the appearance.

// recommended_tierProposed pricing

Run it on Network.

Fintech deals need three kinds of guest: the operator, the risk owner and the budget holder. Network runs up to three ICP segments, with a dedicated producer keeping every episode moving through review.

  • Up to 3 ICP segments. Payments, risk and finance leaders from the same target accounts.
  • 2 show formats. Interviews for depth; roundtables that seat a CRO next to two peers.
  • 12–16 recorded guests a month. Several seats on each target committee per quarter.
  • Closing Desk eligible. $2,500 a month + 8% of first-year contract value on deals it closes.
  • Two buyer groups, not three? Engine runs two segments at $6,900 a month.
