"Embedding financial products creates a win-win scenario: SaaS platforms deepen user relationships and unlock new revenue streams by addressing SMBs' overlooked financial needs," says Blake Breathitt, SVP Platforms & Financial Services at Adyen. "Our research underscores the window of opportunity for SaaS platforms to embrace embedded finance to stay competitive, or get left behind. There is an immense market opportunity here for SaaS platforms, which are in an ideal position to deliver these within their existing ecosystems."
The market is primed with strong demand from SMBs with 50% of SMBs expressing a high likelihood of utilizing a full suite of embedded finance products in the near future, reinforcing its growth potential.
"We are observing an appetite from SMBs to consume a broader range of financial services from within their SaaS platforms, notably loans extending beyond simple cash advances or current accounts tightly integrated in receivables and payables workflows," says Stefan Dab, Founder of BCG's Payments and Fintech practice.
The report highlights that top platforms are now generating more than 50% of their revenues from embedded payments and finance, and shines a light on embedded finance as the next critical growth lever for SaaS. To differentiate in an increasingly competitive market, platforms must consider integrating financial products in their offering.
