Why Are Fintech Partnerships Failing? Stacy Bishop, a BaaS Insider Explains What No One’s Talking About.

Level Up Creators Podcast

🎙️ Fintech Meets Human Connection | Stacy Bishop on Redefining the Future of Banking

In this special episode of the Level Up Creators podcast, Amanda sits down with Stacy Bishop—strategic advisor, fractional executive, fintech sales powerhouse, and co-founder of AmBaaSador—to unpack the past, present, and future of fintech, financial institutions, and banking-as-a-service (BaaS).

Stacy is a rare force in this industry. With 30 years of boots-on-the-ground experience in banking, she’s done everything from teller to revenue leader to go-to-market strategist for the top fintechs and FI partners in the country. She’s also blazing a trail as a female founder in a legacy male-dominated space, lifting up other women and reshaping how relationships work in embedded finance.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

✔️ What “selling fintech” actually means—and why most founders get it wrong

✔️ The role of community banks in the future of BaaS

✔️ Why AmBasSador was built to educate bankers, not just sell to them

✔️ How Stacy acts as a broker between banks, fintechs, and BaaS platforms

✔️ What it takes to earn trust (and money) in financial services

✔️ Why long-term relationships always win over short-term revenue

✔️ Stacy’s journey from high school teller to keynote speaker to MRR Accelerator client

✔️ What it really feels like to leave a legacy brand and go out on your own

💬 If you’re a fintech founder, community banker, or future-of-finance strategist, this episode is packed with insight and clear calls to action.
