Turnkey returns to CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies list

Named one of the world’s top fintech companies in 2026 for the second year in a row.

The World's Top Fintech Companies list, produced by CNBC in partnership with Statista, identifies the leading fintech firms across eight categories: Payments, Neobanking, Alternative Financing, Wealth Technology, Digital Assets, Enterprise Fintech, Insurtech, and Regtech. 

The ranking was determined through in-depth research into relevant KPIs for more than 2,000 eligible companies, using publicly available sources such as annual reports, company websites, and media monitoring, alongside an open application process. Being recognized for a second straight year places Turnkey among a select group of companies defining the future of financial technology.

Founded by the team that previously scaled Coinbase Custody to over $100 billion in assets, Turnkey builds secure, scalable, and programmable infrastructure for embedded wallets, onchain transaction automation, and verifiable enterprise workloads. Turnkey’s infrastructure powers millions of embedded wallets holding billions of dollars in crypto assets.

Since being named one of CNBC's World's Top Fintech Companies in 2025, Turnkey has announced a range of marquee customers, reflecting broad adoption amongst the leading fintech companies, ranging from payments to agentic finance. These include: Flutterwave, Africa's leading payments technology company with infrastructure reach in 34 countries and over $40B in processed transactions; World App, the super app for humans in the age of AI co-founded by Sam Altman, which integrated Turnkey to power programmable key recovery; and Anchorage Digital, the nation's only federally chartered digital asset bank and the first institution to use Turnkey Verifiable Cloud. 

Turnkey is also increasingly the infrastructure of choice for AI-driven applications, powering Catena Labs (the AI-native financial institution co-founded by Circle's Sean Neville), Spectral Labs, and Parallel Studios.

Turnkey’s product announcements over the last year reflect how the company has expanded beyond wallets, developing infrastructure to manage digital assets and sensitive workloads safely. Over the last year, Turnkey launched:
