How does Pay by Bank help your business grow?

Boost sales

Pay by Bank means customers simply pay directly from their bank account via their bank app. It takes the friction out of your checkout, and sees returning customers converting at up to 90%.

Lowers cost

Say hello to up to 50% lower fees than cards. Cut out multiple middle-men taking a slice, plus all the costs associated with fraud and chargebacks. Reinvest the savings and boost your bottom line.

Reduces fraud

Fraud associated with cards is set to grow by a further $10bn by 2028. Pay by Bank doesn't use cards. Customers use their own bank’s security, so sensitive data remains private and every payment is safer.

Scales reliably

68% of businesses experience card outages each year and lose income. Our technology and infrastructure are robust and resilient—handling huge volumes without pause, so you can put your foot down.

Because it’s the easy, fast and secure way to pay

Easy to use

There’s no messing around with long card numbers, multiple steps, annoying codes or downloading apps. Customers are simply redirected to their bank app and enjoy a streamlined experience.

Faster payment

Funds leave customers’ accounts in real time and arrive instantly. You avoid the pain of waiting 1 to 3 days for cards to settle funds. Goods are shipped without delay and your cashflow stays healthy.

Trust it's secure

Payments are securely authorised with methods customers know and trust. They use their bank’s biometric authentication—face ID and fingerprints

More reliable

No bank cards to lose only to be replaced days later. Card cloning is not an issue. Pay by Bank is also the most reliable option when other payment systems go down.

Huge volumes of customers mean we’re able to create the most optimised and localised user-experiences in the industry.

FAQs

An open banking payment, also known as account to account payment and bank to bank payment, allows a customer to pay for something online straight from their bank account. That could be buying a product from an online store, or topping up their account on a wealth management app, pension app or iGaming platform.
