Fintech has become a buzzword today, and companies are riding this popularity to bring innovative services. But, fintech is broad and covers many niche technological areas, including payments, financial management, lending, blockchain-based services, and more.
While payment services remain in the limelight, services around smart contracts have become popular with blockchain technology. Nowadays, artificial intelligence is attracting all the attention as many financial services companies are bringing AI-based services. In addition, demand for alternative financial services like lending skyrocketed globally. These services are making a massive impact on small businesses, often regarded as the backbone of any economy.
