SoFi Technologies has finalized its purchase of Peach Finance, a loan servicing and management software provider established in 2018. This transaction strengthens SoFi’s enterprise technology capabilities.
The companies did not reveal the purchase price. Peach Finance had secured approximately $35.8 million in venture funding, with a $10.3 million Series B round closing in October 2024 as its most recent capital raise.
Peach Finance will be integrated into SoFi Technology Solutions, the business unit that already includes Galileo and Technisys, both previously acquired entities.
The Peach deal represents SoFi’s third acquisition in 2026, following purchases of Composer and United Kingdom-based FinTech platform PrimaryBid.
Earlier this month, SoFi unveiled its Big Business Banking unit, designed to serve enterprise clients requiring both traditional fiat and cryptocurrency banking services.
This acquisition spree underscores a strategic transformation. SoFi continues pivoting from its consumer lending foundation toward becoming an enterprise infrastructure and banking technology provider.
