Ecommpay, a leading international payment service provider and UK and European direct bank card acquirer, has been shortlisted at the prestigious Merchant Payments Ecosystem (MPE) Awards in the Best Use of Open Banking for Payments category.

Ecommpay has been nominated for Open Banking Advanced, a proprietary product that exceeds standard account-to-account payment limitations. The solution notably increases checkout conversion rates to 92%+ for existing e-commerce clients and lowers reconciliation and refund times by 60%.

Open Banking offers a faster, simpler and safer way for customers to pay, with the Ecommpay’s solution offering 85%+ coverage of local banks in the EU and UK via a single integration.

Open Banking Advanced by Ecommpay combines pay-ins and payouts, a dedicated sub-account, funds aggregation, payment confirmation and automatic reconciliation. The solution enables easy management of funds from multiple sources, disbursement of payments and transaction tracking, thus meeting complex banking requirements.

The company has seen growing demand for Open Banking or pay-by-bank payments, which goes hand-in-hand with the goals of online businesses to expand, decrease payment fees and improve efficiency. Ecommpay’s turnover has benefited from Open Banking Advanced, with figures showing a notable increase in 2022 and 2023. The average year-on-year growth rate is around 120%.

Head of Financial Partnerships, Arthur Ribakovs, commented:
