Business Context

The customer's priority is to apply cutting-edge technologies to turn its core offerings into an unprecedentedly cost-effective and fast service package via a single, simple dashboard. In order to outcompete rivals, the company's payment clearing and processing services, based on their in-house system, must be comprehensive and protected, encompassing Visa, Mastercard, SWIFT, and all other players. Andersen was approached as a tech partner in this respect, since we are an IT talent pool with many FinTech payment solutions behind us.

Challenges

In order to win the race for new clients, the customer's system, functioning in a heavily regulated and competitive market, was to simultaneously match all their requirements and the best industry standards in terms of speed, safety, reliability, usability, and accessibility.
