The partnership will allow CellPoint Digital customers to incorporate Vyne into its payment ecosystem and access instant payments without a need for direct integration.

DATE Payment orchestration leader CellPoint Digital today announces a partnership with full stack account-to-account (A2A) payments specialist, Vyne. This partnership allows the Vyne platform to offer instant payments to CellPoint Digital’s merchant customers, allowing users to check-out faster than ever before and reducing merchant transaction costs.

Through CellPoint Digital’s Velocity Payment Orchestration Platform, merchants can easily incorporate Vyne into their payment ecosystem, providing all the speed and convenience of instant payments without the need for a direct integration with an open banking provider. With transactions intelligently routed and monitored in real-time, merchants can analyse performance and use data to cut costs, boost acceptance rates, and simplify operations via automated reconciliation     .

By partnering with Vyne, CellPoint Digital’s merchants can now access improved     payment      experiences too. Harnessing open banking technology, the Vyne solution allows online shoppers to check out in as few as three clicks and offers settlements within seconds.

CellPoint Digital CEO, Kristian Gjerding, said, “The partnership with Vyne represents a significant addition to CellPoint’s payments offering. Merchants currently using our Velocity Payment Orchestration Platform can utilise all the benefits of the Vyne platform within their payments ecosystem and this will provide merchants with a greater opportunity to grow their business.

“At CellPoint, we put much stock into our partnerships. To us, they are more than simply functional and with Vyne being fellow innovators in the payments space with a track-record of supplying top tier merchants, we look forward to developing a long-lasting, collaborative relationship.”

The Vyne solution functions by using a customer’s existing online banking app to initiate and authenticate a transfer. As a result, the customer does not need to enter their account information online and sensitive financial details are never held by the merchant, resulting in a more secure process for both parties. By enabling a payment method that can be completed in just three clicks, the platform provides a simple and seamless experience that can help to reduce cart abandonment.

Vyne CEO, Karl MacGregor, said: “Existing payments and banking solutions are broken, and stacked against the merchants and consumers that use them. Payment methods come with a variety of settlement formats and can take anything from days to weeks to complete with customer conversions impacted by manual card data entry.

Vyne provides a new, alternative payment method for merchants and their customers and we’re delighted that more people will benefit from it through this partnership. CellPoint merchants will now experience instant fund settlement and their customers will be able to complete payments through their own banking apps in just a few taps with no card details needed. Merchants can also engage customers at the right time, through the right channels, using pay by link or QR codes, which can be sent via email, SMS, in app or used for in person sales.

“We look forward to working closely with CellPoint and empowering merchants with a level of payments functionality that can drive real, measurable growth.”
