Consumers benefit from open banking by having access to a wider range of financial services, money management tools and a personalized customer experience when making purchases, made possible through the sharing of data that’s only previously been seen and used by their bank.
“Open banking is rapidly growing in adoption across the payments and financial services industries so we’re pleased to offer these capabilities to our customers,” Hannah Fitzsimons, executive vice president and general manager of Elavon Europe, said in a Tuesday press release. “Our relationship with Nuapay will allow merchants to provide customized, fast and secure payments seamlessly to customers.”
Nuapay, as an account-to-account payment provider through Sentenial, securely processes over €40 billion in payments annually for its bank, payment service provider and merchant clients.
“Merchants can use new open banking solutions to transform the way they engage with and accept payments from their customers," Sean Fitzgerald, CEO of Sentenial, said in the release. "With it, businesses have the potential to gain cost savings, speed improvements as well as security benefits.”
