FinTech Form3 has announced the appointment of Jessica Letterman as the Chief Customer Officer – High Growth. Based in Amsterdam, she will lead Form3’s global development and growth strategy across key markets as well as drive sales and marketing activities across these and other geographies as Form3 expands.

Michael Mueller, CEO commented, “Form3 is delighted to welcome Jessica to the team. We have big ambitions to grow globally and Jessica has proven experience in leading go-to-market strategies on an international scale. We look forward to working with her to expand our European and international presence as we scale up in 2021 and beyond.”

Previously, Letterman worked at ACI Worldwide, where she was responsible for leading International sales and market development for 13 years. She aims to create financial inclusion and global prosperity through real-time payments.

Recently, full-service digital bank Aion Bank and cloud-based banking-as-a-service platform provider Vodeno have teamed up with UK FinTech Form3 in a bid to implement their next-generation payments platform and offer real-time payment processing, clearing, and settlement for Aion’s European members.

Aion Bank offers an all-inclusive approach to banking, thus giving its Premium Members access to a number of money-saving products, very high-interest rates on savings accounts, ETF based asset management (without any of the typical management fees), competitive rates for loans, and personalised financial advice for a fixed monthly fee of 19 euros. The collaboration is expected to enable Aion Bank to utilise Form3’s API-first payments platform for running real-time payment processing via simple API integration. Aion Bank is powered by the Vodeno Cloud Platform (VCP).

Jessica commented, “Form3 has an impressive record of technology excellence, strong investment and big bank names among its customer following. Their advanced, cloud-native technology is now at the forefront of driving the future of payments in both the UK and Europe. I am delighted to be a part of the next phase of growth as we expand geographically into new markets around the world.”
