Fiserv, Inc. (/fˈsɜːrv/ fy-SURV) is an American multinational financial technology company headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The company processes debit and credit card transactions, loyalty programs, loans, electronic bill pay, wires and ACH transfers, check deposits, and ATM transactions on behalf of banking institutions. The company also produces debit and credit cards and point of sale terminals.

Customers primarily include companies in the financial services sector, including banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, securities broker dealers, mortgage, insurance, leasing and finance companies, and retailers. In 2024, 85% of the company's revenues were from the U.S. and Canada, while 15% of revenues were from other countries. Processing represented 81% of revenues and products, including software, hardware, and physical cards, represented 19% of revenue. The company is ranked 208th on the Fortune 500 and 269th on the Forbes Global 2000.

Fiserv was founded in 1984, and within two years, it was listed on NASDAQ. The company experienced rapid growth mainly due to a series of acquisitions, including Citicorp Information Resources, a subsidiary of Citicorp, which was the largest acquisition in its early years. This acquisition put Fiserv into the commercial banking, internal and credit union core account processing market space.

In 1995, Fiserv acquired Information Technology, Inc., (ITI) of Lincoln, Nebraska. Thus, Fiserv acquired Premier, which at that time was the most widely implemented account processing platform in the US, and represented an increase in Fiserv's account processing clients. Fiserv also launched its website in 1995, and introduced fully electronic bill payment (branded as E-bills) in 1997, reaching $1 billion in revenue.

In 2003, Fiserv acquired General American Corporation. It also acquired Consumer Network Services from Electronic Data Systems for $320 million.

In 2005, Jeff Yabuki became Fiserv's CEO, and the company acquired a number of businesses, including Del Mar Database, assets of U.S. eLending business from Emergis, Interactive Technologies, Administrative Services Group Inc., JW Hutton, BillMatrix, VerticalPoint, and Xcipio, Inc.[citation needed]

In 2006, Fiserv acquired CareGain, Inc., Asset of CT Insurance Services & CCH Wall Street.[citation needed]

In 2007, Fiserv acquired NetEconomy and CheckFree — which had itself just acquired Corillian, Carreker, PhoneCharge and Upstream Technologies LLC. This was Fiserv's largest acquisition to date; CheckFree was at that time the leading provider of online banking, online bill payment, electronic bill payment services, and software for check clearance and ACH (also known as direct debit) processing.
