Recognized for inclusive culture and employee appreciation

MONETT, Mo. , May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Jack Henry^® (Nasdaq: JKHY) has been named one of the 2026 Best Places to Work in Financial Technology by Arizent and Best Companies Group.

This annual awards program recognizes leading employers in the financial technology industry. Honorees span a wide range of financial services and were evaluated on workplace practices, culture, systems, demographics, and employee experience. Winners were selected through a two-part survey process that measured employee satisfaction and examined benefits and policies.

"It's an honor to be recognized as a Best Place to Work in Financial Technology," said Jack Henry President and CEO Greg Adelson. "As we celebrate 50 years of living our founding philosophy -- 'do the right thing, do whatever it takes, and have fun' – this recognition reflects the culture we've built together. Our Associates are at the heart of our success, helping banks and credit unions win in the markets they serve through modern technology solutions."

The 2026 list included 33 companies and was published by Arizent brands American Banker, National Mortgage News, PaymentsSource, Financial Planning and Digital Insurance. Jack Henry is the largest company recognized this year, employing more than 7,200 professionals and serving approximately 7,400 financial institution clients. 

"Each year, the Best Places to Work in Financial Technology offers a glimpse into the practices of fintechs whose employees rate their workplaces highly," said Penny Crosman, executive editor of technology at American Banker. "This year, employees appear to value remote work and schedule flexibility above all else, at a time when many traditional financial firms have enforced strict return-to-work policies."

To be considered for participation, companies must provide technology products, services or solutions that enable the delivery of financial services. Companies must also have been in business for at least one full year and employ at least 15 people in the U.S. For more information on Arizent's Best Places to Work in Financial Technology program, including full eligibility criteria, visit BestPlacestoWorkinFinTech.com.
