Orion Digital Corp. is a financial technology company focused on its digital wealth platform. It provides automated investment solutions through its Intelligent Investing platform, operates a European payments infrastructure business via its subsidiary Carta, and manages a Canadian consumer lending portfolio. The firm delivers technology enabled financial services to retail investors, businesses, and individual borrowers.
Revenue is generated from three primary business lines. The wealth business earns subscription and service fees tied to assets under management and member growth. The payments business collects transaction and platform fees from card issuing services, with revenue scaling alongside transaction volume. The lending business generates interest income from its unsecured consumer loan portfolio, driven by pricing and credit performance.
The company operates through the following segments.
- Wealth: The segment offers managed investing through the Intelligent Investing app, providing automated portfolios of broad market ETFs with automatic dividend reinvestment and no account minimums, and self directed trading via the MogoTrade app for commission free equity transactions; it also includes the Tactex platform that supplies regulatory, technology and operational infrastructure to independent advisors.
- Payments: The segment, operated through Carta, supplies payment card issuance, processing and switching services to fintechs, banks and corporations in Europe, holding Visa and MasterCard certifications and supporting prepaid, debit and credit card programs across multiple countries.
- Lending: The segment provides unsecured open line of credit products to Canadian consumers, using proprietary credit decision models, digital underwriting and automated servicing, with loan amounts up to $5,000 and rates regulated by provincial law.
Within the Canadian wealth management space, Orion Digital differentiates itself from competitors such as Wealthsimple, Koho, Questrade, Qtrade and Webull by emphasizing long term, goal based investing rather than frequent trading, and by offering an integrated pathway from borrowing to investing. Its payments subsidiary Carta competes against legacy processors like TSYS, FISERV and FIS as well as modern entrants such as Marqeta, Galileo, Stripe, Adyen and Checkout.com, leveraging its European focus and compliance with PCI DSS and GDPR. The lending business operates in a market populated by traditional banks, credit unions and alternative lenders including Capital One, Fairstone and goeasy, but maintains a niche through its technology driven underwriting and its linkage to the broader wealth ecosystem.
The wealth platform serves individual investors across Canada who seek automated or self directed investment solutions. The payments business serves corporate clients in Europe, including fintech firms, banks and merchants that require card issuing and processing infrastructure. The lending business provides credit to Canadian consumers looking for short term liquidity.
