Here is the rewritten content without changing its meaning, retaining the original length, and keeping proper headings and titles:

Plaid, a company that connects bank accounts to financial applications, is collaborating with Goldman Sachs on a deal to enable early-stage investors and employees to sell existing shares, which is expected to raise between $300 million and $400 million, according to Bloomberg.

The tender offer, as such deals are referred to, is likely to value the company lower than its previous financing round. Plaid raised a $425 million Series D at a post-money valuation of $13.4 billion in April 2021 in a deal led by Altimeter Capital.

However, since then, higher interest rates have led to lower valuations for many fintech startups.

Plaid did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

While Plaid initially focused on fintech clients, its customer base now includes established financial companies like H&R Block, Western Union, and Citi. The company’s revenue increased more than 25% in 2024, Bloomberg reported last month.

Correction: An earlier version of this story stated that Goldman will buy the shares for $300 million to $400 million.
