Rocker is ready to redefine the boundaries of what a modern fintech company can achieve

Michael Merzinger comments on his new role: "We are facing a unique opportunity to reshape how people interact with financial services," says Merzinger. "Rocker has already proven to be an innovator with the strong platform that has already been built. Now we will take it to the next level by fully utilizing Nordiska Embedded."

Stronger after the acquisition

Rocker stands stronger than ever after Nordiska's acquisition in early 2024, with a reshaped and efficient organization. By integrating Rocker's innovative technology platform with Nordiska's banking infrastructure, the company has created a powerful synergistic combination: Nordiska Embedded.

Rocker's technology expertise now complements Nordiska's banking infrastructure, enabling the development of more user-friendly financial services. Rocker Pay, which has already proven successful on several platforms, is expected to have an even greater impact with Nordiska's resources behind it.
