With real-time compliance screening by Fincom and real-time AI-powered transaction monitoring from ThetaRay, the service will allow banks to accelerate business growth, increase risk coverage, and reduce operational costs.

“The introduction of any new payment rail brings new risks, especially when that rail operates in real-time,” said Mike Vigue, Chief Product Officer of Payments at Finastra. “We are building on the success of Payments To Go for instant payments by providing accurate and efficient compliance capabilities at a reduced total cost of ownership. By pre-integrating Fincom and ThetaRay with our solutions, our customers will reduce the time and risks of launching instant payment services while benefiting from a new level of security, scalability, and flexibility.”

Financial institutions can subscribe to the solution through Microsoft Azure Marketplace for convenient billing through one single invoice.

Integrated with Finastra’s Financial Messaging Gateway, Payments To Go provides frictionless, more affordable, and direct access to the TIPS and FedNow networks, among others.
