Elan Credit Card closed 2025 with notable growth, reinforcing its position as a trusted partner. This year alone, 62 new banks and credit unions joined the program, adding 1,105 branches and creating opportunities to serve 1.8 million potential cardmembers.
Additional expansion was achieved through a strategic alliance with Fiserv’s Credit Choice solution which repackages the Elan credit card program to Credit Choice’s more than 100 existing financial institution clients.
“Our partnership numbers keep rising as financial institutions continue to realize the value in Elan’s program — which brings us immense pride. Elan’s current growth trends reflect our commitment to helping financial institutions succeed now and in the future,” said Matthew Carpenter, Partnership Development Market Director.
Innovation remained a priority, with the launch of a new product for both business and consumer cardmembers, expanding APIs for a seamless user experience, and much more.
“We listen closely to our cardmembers and adapt our offerings to match their evolving expectations. Launching the Zero+ products this year is an example of how our product suite is continuously evolving to keep pace with what consumers and small businesses want today and tomorrow,” Carpenter added.
Elan also continued to demonstrate a commitment to community impact through the Elan Charitable Giving program donating more than $345,000 in 2025, and volunteering alongside partners at events in Arizona and New Jersey. Since launching in 2022, the Elan Charitable Giving Program has distributed more than $2.5 million to over 175 nonprofits across the U.S.
With over 55 years of experience, Elan looks forward to building on this momentum in 2026 innovating for cardmembers, supporting partners, and investing in the communities they serve
