Why become a UK payment systems indirect participant

Payment resilience and continuity have always been the foundation of the services provided by payment and electronic money institutions to their customers. From collecting payments to paying their suppliers and employees’ salaries, payments are a critical part of every business and simply cannot break.

Yet, redundancy always comes with an opportunity cost and - until recently - **many fintechs were relying on a limited number of banking partners deemed reliable**. The recent bank fallouts have, however, highlighted that PSPs need to take a more proactive stance in diversifying their banking partner footprint earlier in their journey.

In this webinar, we explore **how successful fintech companies went multi-bank**:

*   What is the bar for payment resilience, and how to measure it
*   How to decide which partner banks to work with
*   Building a multi-bank payment stack and organisation

Join us alongside payments product and business leaders who are making conscious decisions about their banking footprint to future-proof their payment offers:

*   **Dan Wong**, Senior PM Core Banking @ TrueLayer
*   **Nirav Patel**, CEO @ Andaria Financial services
*   **Dimitri Rodrigues**, Chief Product Officer @ iBanFirst


Building resilient payment operations: how fintechs are embracing multi-banking

**From account top-ups to bill payments,** fintech scale-up Spendesk manages billions of euros of corporate spendings for their thousands of customers each year.

Spendesk started its payment journey as an agent of a banking-as-a-service provider but realised that with scale, it needed more controls over its SEPA payments.

To build payment operations supporting its growth, it decided to increase control by becoming a SEPA participant.

Learn how.

In this webinar, our panel will cover:

*   Why becoming a SEPA participant
*   The different steps to become a SEPA participant
*   How to do it right
