Marqeta shares tumbled more than 30% in extended trading on Monday after the company issued weaker-than-expected guidance for the fourth quarter. The payment processing firm said revenue in the fourth quarter will increase 10% to 12% from a year earlier. Marqeta, which primarily functions as a card-issuing platform, attributed the guidance miss to "heightened scrutiny of the banking environment and specific customer program changes." Total processing volume of $74 billion was up more than 30% from a year earlier. The company has been trying to break into the buy now, pay later business with a recently launched product called Marqeta Flex.
