“The payments market is growing at an astronomical pace in response to digital banking adoption and swelling payments volumes,” says Des Noctor, regional director, UK at Temenos. “At this pivotal time, it is vital that banks have a fast and effortless route to market so they can quickly respond to customer appetite for real-time cloud payments.”
He adds: “Together with ClearBank, we will extend this offering to provide the most comprehensive offering for UK banks deploying payments in the cloud.”
