Nerve, a neobank initially designed for musicians, has announced the launch of a new set of public APIs geared towards helping companies serve clients that work within the creator economy.
The new service aims to assist content creators, including individuals and small businesses, as they are a demographic that, according to Nerve, tend to be underbanked and overcharged. “Every creator deserves financial dignity, and we believe that this begins with a business checking account and collaboration tools that meet their everyday needs. They are businesses and should be afforded those same benefits,” said Nerve Co-Founder John Waupsh.
More specifically, Nerve's new APIs will allow firms to send payouts and royalties at a much lower cost for creators, including authors, musicians, filmmakers, entertainers, podcasters, influences, and more.
