Overview

Unit is an enterprise-grade financial infrastructure platform that helps you offer financial services to your customers.

You can implement your use case by creating and managing basic entities. They are the building blocks of Unit, and they include: customers, accounts, payments, cards, and transactions.

Your tooling includes API, Dashboard, and optional UI components.

For a quick example that includes the basic objects and tooling, read our quickstart guide.

Unit's architecture is based on a direct connection to the Federal Reserve systems - Fedwire, FedACH, and Check21 - without any intermediary processing layers. It operates the same way for card networks, which means payment status, settlement timing, and network-level data are all sourced from raw network events, rather than abstractions from underlying systems.

As a program manager, you manage the relationship with your partner bank(s). Read more in our program management guide.
