Ecommpay, a leading international payments service provider and direct bank acquirer, launches Open Banking Select – the latest addition to Ecommpay’s integrated Open Banking payment suite. It offers greater control and scale over payment routing options, a consistent user experience, and all the features of Open Banking Advanced.
By introducing Open Banking Select, Ecommpay becomes the first and only payment provider to orchestrate card payments and Open Banking transactions via a unified proprietary platform.
Open Banking Select includes integrations with top-tier Open Banking providers, with Token leading the way, as well as Neopay and Nuapay. Merchants interested in harnessing the benefits of Open Banking Select with pre-existing partnerships will be able to unify their payment flows by adding their current and preferred trusted Open Banking partners to their payment ecosystem, subject to Ecommpay’s rigorous criteria.
Open Banking Select includes a variety of beneficial capabilities including having additional control and personalisation options over their payment routing, enabling further scalability and regional expertise. eCommerce vendors will also benefit from additional features including access to the fastest bank rails in the EEA and UK, and a dedicated local IBAN - meaning only one bank account is needed to receive payments. Additionally, businesses can enjoy effortless payout and refund processes facilitated through a user-friendly client dashboard, resulting in a 60% reduction in refund processing time.
Merchants also gain advantages through an automatic notifications system when funds reach the account eliminating the need for manual checks and payment verifications, with comprehensive reconciliation reports provided daily or weekly based on business needs.
Select is one of the three service tiers offered through Open Banking by Ecommpay, these include:
Account2Account for small businesses who would like to move away from traditional manual bank transfers to modern A2A payments and benefit from Open Banking functionality and benefits - including authenticated users and time savings via descriptor automation
Advanced for medium and large companies to access more capabilities from diversifying revenue streams to entering new markets
Select for medium and large companies, as well as Open Banking partners, to unlock Ecommpay’s most comprehensive, customisable, and controlled payment experience
