Non-dilutive FinTech & InsurTech accelerators
These fintech programs provide money or funded pilots without taking equity, but only one of them is taking applications. Curql Accelerate, run by gener8tor with a collective of credit unions, gives each company a $7,000 grant to cover travel for a 12-week program built around on-site weeks at credit unions. The Financial Solutions Lab says it concluded in 2022, and the FIS Fintech Accelerator's newest cohort dates from 2024, so both are listed for reference. Check each record's status before planning around a program.

| Curql Accelerate (powered by gener8tor)B2B fintech and bank tech for credit unions | $7,000 non-dilutive grant per company (Spring 2027 cohort) to cover participation and travel | Not published12-week hybrid accelerator from gener8tor and Curql, a collective of credit unions that invests in fintech. Five companies per cohort; most programming is virtual, with three weeklong on-site visits at credit unions. For the Spring 2027 cohort, gener8tor's program page lists a $7,000 non-dilutive grant per startup to cover program participation and travel, and Curql's own page says the program is non-dilutive and participants do not give up equity. gener8tor's fintech and insurance industry listings still describe Curql Accelerate with an older $100,000 investment or uncapped SAFE offer, and a 2024 Curql page says investments go only to credit union service organizations; those pages do not describe the Spring 2027 cohort. Spring 2027 applications close October 25, 2026, and the program runs January 14 to April 23, 2027.
