Thinking ahead

Eurozone payment processing leveraged to global dimension

As our business partner, you demand a convenient, flexible and cost-efficient service, today as well as tomorrow. Our transglobal network allows us to keep meeting your demands with sustainable, future-proof services. In addition, we make sure our clients share in the benefits of continuous innovation. These include the advances being made in transaction technology and international standards, and our participation in the Fraunhofer research. Our involvement in these initiatives helps us prepare your business for tomorrow’s market developments.

By working on open standards for your European SEPA transactions, Equens has also helped provide you with a gateway to international trade through the International Payments Framework (IPF). To minimise processing costs with the world’s largest economy, in April 2009 we formed a collaborative partnership with the United States Federal Reserve Banks to implement IPF payment processing. Starting with low-value, cross-border transfers, from 2010 Equens and the Federal Reserve Banks will process payments between the US dollar and euro.

With many industries ready to benefit from secure and cost-efficient transactions, we are leveraging our experience in financial processing to enter other market segments. By creating unique business solutions for value transactions, industries such as healthcare and telecommunications, and the energy market, can benefit from our expertise. From claims settlement for dental charges to debiting and crediting for power consumption and production, Equens’ product development is creating tomorrow’s standards for reliable and secure value transactions.
