ClearBank has announced the availability of its cloud-native banking solutions and payment infrastructure in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace.

This will open up ClearBank’s solutions to all Azure customers, presenting a vital growth opportunity for the company. ClearBank’s customers can now take advantage of the productive and trusted Azure cloud platform with streamlined deployment and management.

In addition to reducing the friction of the procurement process and promoting scalability, adopting ClearBank products through Azure Marketplace provides Microsoft customers with commercial benefits.

This is the latest development in the companies’ collaboration, which started in 2017. It includes a sustainability initiative which started this year focused on establishing market-leading carbon efficiency in payments and supporting the sector through low carbon technology innovation and cooperation.

The companies are also driving advanced innovation in the financial sector through greater use of AI and automation tools, which are already delivering efficiencies and enabling ClearBank analysts to spend more time proactively supporting clients.

“Our long-standing collaboration with Microsoft has played an important role in ClearBank’s expansion, setting us up to grow globally whilst also accelerating our sustainability improvements,” said John Salter, Chief Customer Officer. “This latest move further strengthens these ties, opening up ClearBank to a wider pool of businesses as we look to push into new markets. We pride ourselves on our cloud-native approach and are confident that Microsoft’s systems will facilitate seamless adoption of our services to companies using Microsoft Azure.”

Jake Zborowski, General Manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp, said, “Microsoft Azure Marketplace welcomes ClearBank, which joins a cloud marketplace landscape offering flexibility and economic value while transacting tens of billions of dollars a year in revenues. Thanks to Azure Marketplace and partners like ClearBank, customers can do more with less by increasing efficiency, buying confidently, and spending smarter.”

The Azure Marketplace is an online market for buying and selling cloud solutions certified to run on Azure. It helps connect companies seeking innovative, cloud-based solutions with partners who have developed solutions that are ready to use.
