PostePay has partnered with Volante to enhance payments modernization program, including its open banking platform, enabling instant payments and providing a new gateway to traditional interbank networks.
Volante’s VolPay cloud-native microservices architecture will allow Poste Italiane to support current and future payment rails by offering high levels of resilience and extensibility. The resulting modern, scalable end-to-end payments processing infrastructure is expected to enhance customer experience and services for Poste Italiane’s accounts.
Poste Italiane, commented, “One of our objectives was to find a partner with whom we could develop common roadmaps for our payment-hub, rather than simply outsource to a vendor for the SCT-INST project. With the payments landscape changing so rapidly, the Poste Italiane Group is investing – alongside other leading global institutions – in a growing company known for its modern, resilient and scalable technology to continue to provide our customers with the most technologically advanced and reliable payment experience. The fact that VolPay is cloud-native proved particularly attractive in that it can offer a variety of deployment models.”
The partnership will further enable the development of innovative products, like Codice Postepay QR code solution, allowing state-of-the-art customer experience and paving the way for further exciting developments. In line with the Group’s strategy, PostePay’s first goal is to inform and guide changes in consumer habits, accelerating Italy’s transformation from cash to digital payments. Through this valuable partnership, Poste Italiane will be able to serve its customers even better.
Volante Technologies added, “It is clear that Poste Italiane is constantly looking for ways to ensure that its customers benefit from the emerging opportunities of digital payments. We are delighted that they chose Volante and that we have the opportunity to help them further modernize their payments landscape with speed, enabling them to become more competitive now and in the longer term. We are confident that we can provide them with the extensibility they require to achieve their future growth objectives in payments.”
