Cross River Bank is a New Jersey state-chartered, FDIC-insured commercial bank that powers banking infrastructure for fintech partners including Affirm, Coinbase, Stripe, and Marqeta. Unlike VC-funded fintech startups it is an actual regulated depository institution. It raised $620M in 2022 at a ~$3B valuation, with T. Rowe Price participating. The bank operates under a 2023 FDIC consent order related to fair-lending and BSA/AML controls and has been working through remediation. An IPO has been discussed for 2025-2026 but no S-1 has been filed.
