Wildfire Systems Makes the Inc. 5000 for Second Consecutive Year, Ranking No. 80 With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 3,783%

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Inc. revealed today that Wildfire Systems, an innovative financial technology platform that powers reward programs, shopping companions, and content monetization, ranks No. 80 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment – its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“We couldn’t be more excited to make the top 100 in the Inc. 5000 for two years running,” said Jordan Glazier, CEO, Wildfire Systems. “Our substantial growth and momentum are testament to the value we bring to our clients across the financial services and technology sectors. In turn, our clients deliver value to their customers in the form of cashback rewards, enabling a better customer experience and increased loyalty while driving high-converting visitors to our online merchant partners. At the end of the day, we could only achieve this level of growth with our committed team, who is dedicated to helping our partners achieve success.”

The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.

For complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, location, and other criteria, go to www.inc.com/inc5000. All 5000 companies are featured on Inc.com starting Tuesday, August 13, and the top 500 appear in the new issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 20.

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”

Wildfire’s innovative technology platform drove nearly $600 million in online purchases from merchants in over 50 countries in 2023. The company’s platform powers reward programs and shopping companions for financial institutions and technology companies, from early stage startups to some of the largest companies in the world, including Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), Microsoft, and Citi.

Wildfire was named the number one fastest growing small private company in San Diego county by the San Diego Business Journal in October 2023. And in February 2024, TMC awarded Wildfire Systems’ Revenue Engine a winner of their 2023 Generative AI Product of the Year Award.
