Use cases
Banks
We’re keen to be your key technological partner, empowering financial institutions to drive innovation through Open Banking solutions. Banks are closely collaborating with Fintechs to offer new and improved services to both their existing and potential customers.
A great example is the “Connect with Your Other Banks” feature within Bank’s channels. With this functionality, banks allow their customers to connect account data from other banks, making it easier to track and manage their daily finances, gain insights into their financial health, and receive offers for enhanced products at lower costs.
Accounting Software
We are the Open Finance connection for the main Accounting Tools in Spain that focus on digitizing treasury and accounting tasks for companies. By automating the connection and retrieval of categorized financial information from different banks, we provide a comprehensive service within the software itself.
The direct benefits include avoiding human errors that occur during manual data transcription, significant time and resource savings that allow companies to focus on other key tasks for growth, and much more.
Lending & Consumer Finance
When it comes to online financing, having the ability to assess the financial stability of loan applicants in real-time is crucial. With solutions like our Financial Aggregation + Account Holder Verification, online financing companies can gain access to a year’s worth of the applicant’s bank account transactions and verify the account holder of their accounts.
By leveraging this information, our customers can make more precise scoring decisions and act responsibly when granting financing, ensuring a more secure lending process.
Debt Collection
In the debt collection industry, Open Banking offers a wealth of advantages. It provides easier and instant access to up-to-date financial data of debtors, significantly improving the efficiency of debt management. Additionally, it enables the implementation of personalized debt recovery strategies, leading to better outcomes.
Open Banking also helps reduce fraud and simplifies the process for debtors by offering alternative payment methods through Payment Initiation (A2A payments). This not only enhances the overall customer experience but also reduces payment processing costs and optimizes debt collection efficiency.
Ecommerce
The Ecommerce & Retail sector has undergone rapid digitization in recent years, driven by changes in consumer shopping behavior. In response, companies in the industry have embraced new technologies and payment solutions to enhance the customer experience. Our Payment Initiation solution, also known as Account-to-Account payments, complements these efforts by offering users a fast, easy, and direct payment method directly from their bank account in real-time.
This service is highly valued by companies in the sector as it reduces transaction costs and improves customer engagement. By providing alternative payment options that streamline the digital shopping journey, businesses can enhance the overall experience for their customers and boost conversion rates. With our Payment Initiation solution, companies can stay ahead in the competitive landscape, delivering seamless and efficient payment experiences to their customers.
