SoFi Technologies has finalized its purchase of Peach Finance, a loan servicing and management platform established in 2018. This transaction strengthens SoFi’s position in the enterprise technology infrastructure market.
The companies did not reveal the acquisition price. Peach Finance had secured approximately $35.8 million in venture funding throughout its history, including a $10.3 million Series B round completed in October 2024.
Peach Finance will become part of SoFi Technology Solutions, the business unit that already includes Galileo and Technisys. Both of these platforms were also brought into SoFi’s portfolio through previous acquisitions.
This transaction represents SoFi’s third strategic purchase in 2026. Earlier this year, the financial technology company acquired both Composer and PrimaryBid, a UK-based fintech platform.
Additionally, SoFi unveiled its Big Business Banking unit this month, designed to serve enterprise clients managing traditional currency and cryptocurrency banking needs.
The recent acquisition activity demonstrates a strategic evolution. SoFi is expanding beyond its original consumer lending business model toward infrastructure solutions and corporate banking technology platforms.
SOFI shares began Tuesday’s session at $15.62. This represents a substantial decline from the 52-week peak of $32.73, although it remains comfortably above the 52-week bottom of $12.74.
The stock’s 50-day moving average stands at $16.74, while the 200-day moving average is $21.93. The company’s market capitalization totals $20.04 billion.
