CardWorks, Inc., an innovative financial services platform delivering products and services broadly across the credit and payments landscape, announced it has rebranded as CardWorks Financial Group, Inc., unveiling a new visual identity. The changes extend across the organization, with refreshed brands also being debuted for CardWorks Servicing, LLC, and Carson Smithfield, LLC, following this year's earlier rebrand of Merrick Bank as "The bank that builds

At the core of the rebrand is a defining idea: that CardWorks Financial Group is the "Everyday Champion" for clients and consumers, providing solutions as they navigate modern finance. The company's brand narrative, "The Engine Driving Financial Progress," reflects its commitment to "Powering Financial Progress, for Everyone."

Through its family of companies, CardWorks Financial Group tackles the complex challenges that larger financial institutions leave behind. Embedded throughout the credit card ecosystem as a lender, servicer and merchant acquirer, CardWorks Financial Group has a proven track record of finding underserved subsegments of large markets and delivering value to customers.

"At CardWorks Financial Group, our north stars are discipline and integrity. Our new brand story captures the promise on which our company was founded nearly 40 years ago—to be a trusted partner grounded in doing the right thing, operational excellence, and market-leading expertise," said Don Berman, Founder and Executive Chairman of CardWorks Financial Group.

The new logo introduces a distinctive aperture-inspired "C" mark, symbolizing opportunity, access, and forward momentum. Vibrant shades of dark blue and electric blue connect the companies together with each business expressing its unique identity through complementary colors.

"We want a brand that reflects both who we are and how we operate in the market: Confident, trusted, and built for the future," said Crystal Wright, Senior Vice President of Communications, at CardWorks Financial Group. "The new design system and voice bring clarity to our story while reinforcing the strength and credibility behind our platform."

The new brand will roll out across all digital platforms, including a redesigned website and updated social media presence, and will create a more unified and modern experience for clients, partners, and employees.
