IT & Transactional platforms: We build and operate state-of-the-art digital hubs for easy interconnection … in the cloud. Our founders started with telecom payments at Mpulse, then brought digital payments to the banks with Digicash.Our ecosystem platforms are highly reliable, fully scalable and secure, and so are the interfaces (web, Apps, APIs & SDKs)
Regulatory compliance:Financial services & telecoms regulatory compliance is inherent … by design. Both banks and telecom operators rely on the platforms and services we built. We fully master legal requirements for retail financial & telecoms services in-house and we design products accordingly
User experience: Customers have to like it or they won’t use it … it’s as simple as that. Without a great UX, don’t go live in today’s fully digital world. All products should be designed around the customer journey. And we know that most of the times it is foremost about the little things that make the difference
