Walmart-backed financial startup buys 2 companies

Shown is a Walmart location in Philadelphia, Wednesday, Nov. 17, 2021. The financial technology startup that Walmart is backing will buy two financial companies as it tries to create one app where shoppers can do different financial activities from getting paid to borrowing and saving money. The venture called Hazel will purchase Even, a financial benefits platform that enables employees to access their earned wages early. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke)
