Now, through a single app, you can manage them all. Yodlee created TANDEM to enable safe and meaningful dialogue about finances between individuals and among groups.With its unique tools to access, learn, manage, project, and control, TANDEM empowers you to make financial decisions as a family, a couple, a group, or a parent. And making financial decisions has never been more rewarding or more actionable. Close, Closer, Closest. Regardless of the relationship(s), you get one app, different views, full financial control.”

The goal of NEXT is to “promote and accelerate” innovation in the fintech space. The program consists of an initial incubation stage, during which the companies are given free access to Yodlee Interactive’s API for six months.
