Banking technology provider Temenos has teamed up with Vodeno and Aion Bank to accelerate banking-as-a-service (BaaS) deployment in Europe.
Through the collaboration, the firms aim to address the complexities and regulatory hurdles of deploying embedded financial services in the region.
Their initial offering will club the Temenos Banking Cloud with card management and payment processing services offered by Vodeno through an application programming interface (API).
The offering, Temenos said, will allow its clients to expand their product portfolio by automating and embedding new payments and card services.
Temenos CEO Max Chuard said: “The Temenos Banking Cloud combined with Vodeno’s technology and Aion Bank’s proposition will help banks and non-banks to create, deploy, consume and monetise new banking services.”
BaaS allows licensed lenders to integrate their digital banking services into the products of non-financial entities.
