Marqeta hits record TPV with 31% growth, near profitability

structured data

This data shows Marqeta has shifted from growth-at-all-costs to profitable growth. Gross margins expanding faster than revenue (24% vs. 23%) and losses nearly erased suggest the unit economics are working — they're not just adding customers, they're doing it profitably. European expansion appears to be the real lever: geographic diversification at scale reduces reliance on any single market.

Watch: Watch Q1 2026 net income — if MQ swings to GAAP profit, the market will reassess the company's path to sustained profitability and multiple expansion. Also track TPV growth pace in Europe versus U.S.; if European growth sustains above 30%, it validates the international thesis and warrants higher valuations.
