Descriptiontext

Nuuvia (formerly Incent) is a B2B SaaS provider of a white-label and co-branded youth banking platform sold to community banks and credit unions in the United States. The company's core product is a mobile-first platform composed of six interconnected modules — Learn (gamified financial literacy), Earn (cash for chores/grades, allowances, A2A transfers), Spend (parental debit card controls), Save (goal tracking), Give (charitable donations), and Borrow (parental loan simulation) — designed for end users aged roughly 5 to 18. The platform is delivered to financial institutions as an embedded experience under their own brand, integrating with the FI's existing core and digital banking infrastructure rather than replacing it, so that the FI retains ownership of accounts, deposits, card revenue, data, and member relationships.

Nuuvia monetizes via enterprise SaaS subscriptions on an annual billing cadence, with quote-based pricing tied to institution size and deployment requirements (no public list price). Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales targeting senior executives at community FIs, channel partnerships (notably Alkami Elements Partner Program), and community-led growth through credit union ecosystems and school-based programs. An exclusive content partnership with Biz Kid$ (Emmy award-winning PBS financial literacy program) provides differentiated educational material. Named clients include High Point Federal Credit Union, Desert Financial Credit Union, and United Financial Credit Union, among dozens of community FIs across the U.S.

The company was founded in 2018, rebranded from Incent to Nuuvia in July 2025 to signal a shift from youth-only to lifecycle engagement, closed a $4 million strategic investment in December 2025 from Desert Financial Credit Union and VyStar Credit Union, and operates with a 1-10 person team from Portland, Oregon. Leadership includes Richard Logan (Founder & CEO) and Marcell King (President & COO). No revenue, ARR, or valuation has been disclosed.
