Karat Financial is expanding beyond credit cards, launching a banking product designed specifically for creators. Co-founder Eric Wei highlighted that traditional banks often fail to understand the unique needs of creators, many of whom face challenges like credit card rejections despite their business success. To accommodate this, Karat's new banking product offers accessible, tailored financial services, including a free FDIC-insured checking account with tax planning features. With $1.5 billion in credit extended, including significant amounts to top creators, this initiative reflects the growing recognition of creators as legitimate businesses needing proper financial support.
