RiseUp, the AI-driven financial insights tool, has partnered with global open banking platform Salt Edge to help their clients turn financial data into revenue by bridging the gap between financial insights and payments.

This partnership aims to deliver a richer financial experience to UK businesses and a deeper understanding of their customers’ financial behaviours. By integrating Salt Edge’s open banking capabilities into the RiseUp platform, the partnership seeks to simplify money management through the combination of AI-driven insights, smart behavioural technology, and real-time data analysis.

As open banking infrastructure becomes increasingly standardised, the true differentiator lies in the ability to create value from the data it provides. By combining RiseUp’s behavioural intelligence and AI-powered insights with Salt Edge’s secure, open banking-compliant platform, the partnership allows businesses to move from data aggregation to meaningful customer engagement. This enables financial institutions to better identify key financial moments and help consumers take action, whether it’s saving, lending, or building long-term financial wellbeing.

Founded in 2017, RiseUp harnesses open banking and AI to deliver smarter financial experiences that drive growth and improve KPIs for financial institutions and fintechs. Salt Edge brings expertise in secure bank connectivity, offering regulated access to Account Information Services (AIS) and Payment Initiation Services (PIS) across thousands of financial institutions in over 50 countries. This partnership empowers businesses to unlock new value by turning financial data into personalised experiences that engage users and accelerate innovation.

It represents a step change in how financial institutions can connect insights to action, enabling real-time, personalised nudges and seamless payment journeys that help consumers build lasting financial wellbeing.

"Open banking has given us unprecedented access to financial data, but the true value lies in transforming that data into meaningful action. Our partnership with Salt Edge enables exactly that, combining their trusted infrastructure with RiseUp’s AI on top, to help financial institutions identify key financial moments and drive real customer engagement. Together, we’re moving beyond data aggregation to unlock real growth and empower people to make smarter, more confident financial decisions."

Together, we’re enabling businesses to deliver smarter financial solutions and creating a more connected, actionable experience that drives better financial outcomes for consumers."
