The acquisition is notable for a couple of reasons. For one, if the companies have managed to keep their valuations level, it would be one of the bigger M&A deals between two fintech startups coming at a time when startups have found it very challenging to raise further funding. Second, it will add a number of new backers to Acorns’ cap table. Lastly, this gives Acorns an opening to grow internationally, starting with GoHenry’s existing footprint across the U.K., France, Italy and Spain.
