Under the hood
As always, our API-centric platform remains unified. We’ve normalised France’s approach to PSD2, so our current clients can enable French banks in their console immediately. Our products are 100% API based, which means they are faster, safer, and more reliable than alternative solutions like screen scraping.- Faster — Data and payments are received in real-time.
- Safer for you — Users authenticate directly with their bank, reducing the risk of fraud.
- Safer for your customers — No user credentials are ever stored, we provide superior security by encrypting data and not storing encryption keys. Customers can revoke access to their bank account at any time.
- Reliable — Data is sent via direct bank channels in a machine-readable format.
