Through the BIN sponsor programme, all of Railsbank's clients gain access to the same global payment technology, expertise and revenue opportunities as they would if they were a direct card issuer with Visa. This initiative allows Railsbank to expand their market portfolios and become a go-to-partner for Fintechs as they build and launch their card programmes in the country. Partnering with Railsbank also provides Fintechs the solutions and expertise they need to get up and running with speed and efficiency.

Railsbank is also a Visa Fintech Fast Track partner, enabling Fintech companies to gain access to Visa’s network. The programme is part of Visa’s global strategy to open up its network and support a broad range of players that are developing new commerce experiences.

Nigel Verdon, CEO and Co-founder, Railsbank, said: “Our partnership with Visa gives us the opportunity to provide companies with a broad range of Visa payment solutions, such as Cards-as-a-Service, that meet the identified needs of their users. Railsbank simplifies the process of embedding financial services into a customer journey and can therefore help any company - no matter what industry or sector they’re in - to become a fintech by adapting to the needs of their market and customers quickly and easily.”

Kunal Chatterjee, Visa Country Manager for Singapore & Brunei said, “At Visa, we are focused on engaging and building strategic partnerships with the Fintech community. We’re extremely pleased to have Railsbank join us as an exclusive issuer in Singapore, and Banking Identification Number (BIN) sponsor. Our collaboration with Railbank and the BIN sponsorship arrangement is beneficial for Fintechs as it accelerates the onboarding journey with Visa. We are looking forward to seeing more Fintechs benefit from this partnership with Railsbank as we continue to drive innovation and support the launch of products and solutions that transform the payment experiences of consumers in Singapore.”
