About Column
Column expands the BaaS API surface with regulatory infrastructure other providers haven't shipped yet.
Column ships in seasonal batches and is using each one to widen the gap with thinner BaaS competitors. The recent batches have added 1099-INT tax form APIs, Federal Reserve reference rate access, full Fedwire ISO 20022 message integration, Swift wire amendments, and richer account modeling. The product is positioning itself as the BaaS for fintechs that need to handle the complex, regulated edges of money movement, not just the happy path.
