Through joining the Swift Partner Programme, Veritran’s customers will be able to offer their end users access to a number of Swift solutions that will increase transparency and security in cross-border payments. The Swift GPI Tracker will enhance transparency in cross-border payments by enabling users to check a payment’s status; Payment Pre-validation will increase security and peace of mind by validating beneficiary data before a payment is sent, while SwiftRef - Swift’s payments reference data solution - will help streamline payment operations and enable users to find all the data sets they need in one place. Users will also have full visibility of a payment cost, including the FX rate, upfront.

The proposition offers an end-to-end solution that will minimise friction and enhance the customer experience by ensuring quicker and more transparent transactions worldwide. This collaboration aims to simplify the customer experience and boost the operational efficiency of financial institutions.

Juan Carlos Botrán, Global Head of API Acceleration at Swift, said: “Collaborations such as this are improving the experience for those sending payments cross-border, while also increasing transparency and security to improve the ecosystem as a whole. It’s vital that industry players work together in this way to overcome increasing fragmentation in the cross-border payments landscape.”

Veritran, a leading global technology company dedicated to streamlining seamless banking experiences, leverages its extensive expertise and deep market insights to guarantee efficient integration and swift market deployment.

Gabriela Giannattasio, VP of EMEA at Veritran added: "We are thrilled to play an important role in this strategic collaboration.

This collaboration aims to enhance user loyalty by expanding digital access and improving the efficiency of banking operations and end user experience.
